OT. Digital Art

I can add this to the long list of things that make no sense to me.

69 million dollars

I have some Snoopy ASCII art from the 1980s. I wonder what it would be worth.

If you have a shoebox of punch cards that was used to generate Snoopy on a 1403 printer it might be worth something.

Good luck finding a card reader.

The real reason Florida abandoned the punch cards for voting is they could not find enough installed card readers in the state to count the

2000 vote and IBM pulled a bunch of assorted card readers out of a scrap yard. We got a 3505 that took a week to get running. It was missing parts, banged up covers and basically worn out. I went down there on my own time 4 years after I retired to help out. Nobody was trained. They were already saying never again in October. They packed it up after the last machine recount and shipped it back. That was 20 years ago. I bet there aren't 100 card readers running in the whole country unless they are in a museum or some hobbyist's basement.

The one with all the little squares is rather pretty. If I had an empty wall, I'd give 100 dollars for it.

Snoopy? Millions.
