I remember punched cards, punched tape
In fact I was a nerd and could read the tape by looking at it - use a tool to edit out unwanted lines,
p.s. I also remember 8" floppy disks
I was ambidextrous with a hand punch. You needed to change hands after a hundred cards or so. Rebuilt a punch I found rusting away, and vowed never again! You have to align 12 precision punches at the same time, against spring pressure.
8" disks? I used both hard sector and soft sector versions - as late as 1998!
school pens which were a metal nib on a long piece of wood and you dipped it in the ink well? Was always a hassle to get a pen that hadn't got a bent nib
Also when lering to write using the books that were full of close lines - bit like music score without the musical pieces - and lines and lines of the same letters until you could do them without the lines.
I was Ink Monitor for a time. We used a shade which nobody else would touch!
I recently found a reference to a book of handwriting samples published by a distant cousin who was Writing Master at Ackworth from 1779 to 1821. I wonder if it was still in use in my day? There was certainly something along those lines!
I love the idea of the Magic Cupboard
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic - Arthur C Clarke, 1961.
