I remember starting off with punch cards and cards we had to "colour in" with a pencil so we could run programs in batch mode at the county council office. That was for Computer Studies at school.
Then we got a 4k Wang computer at school
. It had a B/W screen and a cassette drive. The next year the school got an 8k Tandy... wow!
When I started uni, it was all teletype terminals to the mainframe. By 5th year at uni I bought my own computer - a 32k MicroBee!
I wrote my thesis on that - again with a cassette drive. We wrote microprocessor code at uni on Apple IIs. After I graduated I upgraded the µB to a "chook in book" with twin 3.5" floppy drives. About the same time, I think the first PC's were showing up at work - we had an original IBM PC that the whole engineering department could use. I think it had a 10M HDD.
Things have bloated in leaps and bounds since then!
