Our mainframe at work is so old some of the lines of code refer to an abacus..

You youngsters get all the coolest stuff.  All our beads were black... and the few inscriptions on the sides were in ancient Chinese.  Not even Toasty is that old.

No, I'm not. Atleast we had colored beads and knots in our cords.

That thing looks like a prop from 2001 Space Odyssey.

Small world, I'm just watching that right now...  The Earth Orbit scenes...
