And I am 0x35, reversing the digits give you my decimal age.
I too got into Teletypes through my interest in reliving my earliest
computer experiences, which started on a Model 33 connected to a PDP11 and
then later to a DECSYSTEM-20. I was at school at the time and the local
polytechnic allowed us to access their systems. For a while I had no storage
on the system and had to do everything with punched cards, then one day,
seeing my enthusiasm, they gave me some storage and I was back on the
Teletype, interacting with my programs. Eventually the Teletypes were
replaced with glass teletypes, and the terminal room became much quieter.
Now, I have a Model 33 again and I can relive the experience by emulating
the DECSYSTEM-20 using SIMH.
