Remember when computer magazines used to have lsitings that you typed in, now they come with computer taped to the front ;-)
In further news Cray announce they'll be giving away a brand new XC40-AC supercomputer when you buy 5 or more Krispy Kreme donuts. :)

Remember when you got a machine code ZX81 listing that was basically a massive REM statement full of "junk" for 2 solid pages - real bugger to proof read...
Phooey. I remember having to prepare programs for the Elliott 803 on paper tape, using unreliable teletypes to punch it out. Try proof-reading paper-tape why don't you :-)
At least of you drop it it stays in order - unlike cards!

The worst I?ve ever used was mark-sense cards. Same encoding as
80 column punch cards, but instead of punching holes you had to mark crosses with a pencil. Reading the crosses was unreliable, so one had to subit an edit to correct the mistakes. Trying to make sure that if the edit was read incorrectly it didn?t make the code worse was an interesting intellectual exercise!

I remember them!
No, Pencoed, by Sony.

Approaching £30 on ebay
Owain
Why would someone pay more than the cost of the full version for this?
Because they want one, there isn't one in their local WHSmiths or wherever, and £30 isn't too much for them to spend to satisfy this week's impulse buy urge.

CPC will sell you one for about £12 including the cables.
I already have the required cables so I wont be buying one.
Pah, we used to correct typos on the Elliott 803 paper tapes by punching extra holes one at a time with a little hand punch. You could only realistically add holes though, filling them in didn't really work.
