10 things I miss about Big Iron
Date: December 14th, 2010
Author: Jaime Henriquez
In the early 1970s, I worked in operations at Montgomery Ward’s
computer center in Chicago. It was the era of Big Iron, dominated by
IBM, whose System/360 line of mainframe computers was used by
government, larger corporations, and big universities. Much has
improved since then. Still, thinking back to that time, there are some
things I miss.
Note: This article is also available as a PDF download. Check out the
related Big Iron photo gallery for a visual trip down memory lane.
1: I miss “the Floor”The Floor was an expanse of mysterious boxes
scattered singly or in rows as far as the eye could see, separated
from ordinary workspace to allow for a raised floor to limit dust and
dirt and provide for intensive air conditioning. There was no obvious
connection between the boxes … unless someone had pulled up part of
the floor with one of those wonderful suction-cup tile lifters that
always made me think of Spider-Man.
2: I miss the solidity of Big IronAll the delicate parts — circuit
boards and the like — were inside metal cases five feet tall and
several feet wide, big and heavy enough to run into and bounce off of.
It’s likely they were bolted to the floor, since cables ran from box
to box underneath it. This was machinery that could take abuse: If
needed, you could always whack a misbehaving CPU on the IPL (reboot)
button. Now it’s all briefcases in spaghetti.
3: I miss the simple supportBack then, you knew that one of two groups
would handle whatever problem came up, either your own in-house
programmers or the guys from IBM. If there was anything wrong with the
hardware — computers or peripherals — it was IBM that came out to fix
it. Usually, it was the CEs (customer engineers). But if you were in
really big trouble, the SEs (system engineers) would turn up. Their
titles suggested an attitude to customer service appropriate for a
corporate hegemony: Never engineer the system if you can engineer the
customer instead.
4: I miss “the priesthood of the computer”We had exclusive access to
the mysterious machines that were then gathering up the threads of
power like so many bright-eyed spiders. Telling someone you worked
with computers was enough to get you respect, and maybe a little awe.
Better yet, you didn’t need experience or education if you had talent;
companies would train you. Those were the days.
5: I miss the noveltyAll those machines and all that human-like
processing being controlled by cryptic commands from an ordinary-
looking typewriter — that was new. It wasn’t complete control, though.
I still remember being slightly freaked out the first time the
computer typed back to me. Clearly, the realm of “Untouched by Human
Hands” was expanding.
6: I miss the iconic imagesComputers and peripherals used to visibly
do things — and some of those images became stock footage in TV and
film. Spinning tape drives, punched cards being sorted faster than the
eye could follow, and the ever-popular rows of flashing lights (easily
imitated by set designers), all came to represent “thinking machines”
to the general public.
7: I miss the look of the CPUAll those flashing lights, toggle
switches, and label rollers, promising to reveal the inner workings of
the computer. I was sort of disappointed to find that it didn’t mean
much to the operator. Basically, flashing was good; not flashing was
bad.
8: I miss the sights and sounds of peripheralsIt was kind of soothing
to watch a 2401 tape drive rev up to speed or spin down, and hear the
“ka-chunk” when a 2314 disk drive got up to speed and tested the read/
write head.
9: I miss the ubiquitous punched cardThe card was the first step by
which information became computer data. There was a rumor at the time
that IBM actually made all its profit not from selling hardware and
software, but from selling cards.
10: I miss the Emergency Pull That bright red handle was carefully
located to be accessible yet out of the way. It was the subject of
this trainee’s first lecture: “That handle that says Emergency Pull?
Don’t ever pull it, no matter what!” Apparently, pulling it turned a
million dollar machine into a million-dollar doorstop. To me, that
garishly labeled but never-to-be-used device felt like a fitting
introduction to the world of computer logic — organized and rational,
yes, but not always sensible.

LOL, that's a good one. Sounds a bit like Urban Legend but it could
be true.
RL
Probably cut power to the drives during a disk write. Not that much
different from today when power is cut during a disk write. The big
difference is those old machines were disk bound with their "virtual
memory" so there was always some writing going on at all times but
RAID type redundancy had not been invented.
Oh.. Ten bucks says Reid is going to add something idiotic to this
thread.

The last "Big Equipment" area that I saw dispensed with the raised
floor and went with overhead cable trays. No air conditioning blown
through the floor like they had 15 years before with Big VAX hardware.

Our last was circuit boards in VME cages.

Most of our spacecraft stuff was made by Honeywell but then they used
as much COTS hardware as they could.

We had (in order of decreasing desirabilty): green light (all OK),
yellow light (power-on self test), red light (crashed), no light
(crashed so hard it couldn't turn on the red light).

The FTC required that IBM decrease their market share in punched
cards. When I went to college about 35 years ago, a reading a punched
card was about 10 times as expensive as a printed line.

What I heard about it is pulling it disables the machine until IBM
hardware service checked the machine and reset the switch. It would be
a million dollar doorstop until the hardware guys reset it.
We had a false fire alarm one time where they figured out the fire
system had problems. The water spray in the simulator area went off,
but the simulator didn't cut off. The Halon dumped, but the power
didn't go out. They ended out cutting power to most of the building. I
don't remember if they sent us home or not.
We also moved our equipment into a new high-class computer room about
1982. I asked my manager if the fire suppression system was
operational. He checked with the responsible people and told us "yes,
it's operational." When they did their six month check we found out
that the proper answer was "no, it's not operational."
I could go on and about various flavors of big and not-so-big iron but
then it's not germane to stock. OK, some symbols: AAPL, AMAT, IBM,
INTC.
Hello
Hereis a pregnant question for you?
Who decided, when and why etc. is the 666 used in the bar code?
It's a message written specifically to you. It means jew hating
forgers like you will go to hell. Now, do us a favor and drop dead
and make the prophecy a reality.
Hello,
So that means you donot know the answer?
Truth is hate to you?
I guess that means lie is love to you, according to Jesus in John
8:44, where he speaks of you and your father, the lovers of lies and
murders, as here in your posts you cannot rise above death: the death
of old dead computers, and USENET posters bearing truths you see as
hate and death; the complete opposite of what they are, which is
freedom and life as promised in John 8:32
John 8:44 (King James Version)
44Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye
will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the
truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he
speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Have somemore of your idea of "hate", which my Bible calls "truth"
(Truth will set you free John 8:32):
This “INVASION”:
“Know thine enemy”.
We HAVE BEEN Invaded !
Our Government has been mutated instead of bound. Theyare now the
enemy’s “useful idiots”; mindless, heartless zombies, who have usurped
and perverted the Marines slogan: Itisnot for us to reason why, but to
obediently do, murder and lie.
Only if this isNOT the “End Times” can we stop this invasion, however
if it is infact the “End Times”, we can only survive it, and how to do
that can only be found in the Word of our Father and his only begotten
son‘s instruction . . . DO NOT ACCEPT THE MARK OF THE BEAST, 666.

When asked what he thought about the September 11 attacks on the
Pentagon and the World Trade Center, an Israeli Minister told the
press that "this is very good.":
http://english.pravda.ru/news/russia/04-10-2001/33592-0/
— Menachem Begin - Israeli Prime Minister 1977–1983:
"The Jewish people as a whole will become its own Messiah. It will
attain world dominion by the dissolution of other races, by the
abolition of frontiers, the annihilation of monarchy and by the
establishment of a world republic in which the Jews will everywhere
exercise the privilege of citizenship.
In this New World Order the children of Israel will furnish all the
leaders without encountering opposition. The Governments of the
different peoples forming the world republic will fall without
difficulty into the hands of the Jews. It will then be possible for
the Jewish rulers to abolish private property and everywhere to make
use of the resources of the state. Thus will the promise of the Talmud
be fulfilled, in which is said that when the Messianic time is come,
the Jews will have all the property of the whole world in their
hands." — Baruch Levy, Letter to Karl Marx, 'La Revue de Paris', p.
574, June 1, 1928
Our race is the Master Race. We are divine gods on this planet. We are
as different from the inferior races as they are from insects. In
fact, compared to our race, other races are beasts and animals, cattle
at best. Other races are considered as human excrement. Our destiny is
to rule over the inferior races. Our earthly kingdom will be ruled by
our leader with a rod of iron. The masses will lick our feet and serve
us as our slaves." — Menachem Begin - Israeli Prime Minister 1977–1983

Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon
October 3, 2001, to Shimon Peres, as
reported on Kol Yisrael radio:
"Every time we do something you tell me America will do this and will
do
that . . . I want to tell you something very clear: Don't worry about
American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America,
and
the Americans know it."

Rabbi Ovadia Yosef founded the Shas party which is part of the prime
minister’s coalition government.
ABC News calls him: (http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/
2010/08/30/2996689.htm?section=justin)“the spiritual leader of one of
Israel’s leading parties.”
Yosef’s ruthless words didn’t only target Arabs, but anyone around the
world who criticizes Zionism. "May all the nasty people who hate
Israel vanish from our world,” he said, “May God strike them down with
the plague, along with all Palestinians who persecute Israel." If
Yosef had his way, Israel critics like Rev. Ted Pike, Norman
Finkelstein, Nathaniel Kapner and the Israel Lobby authors would
become victims of Israeli targeted assassinations, their voices of
warning silenced forever.

According to Jesus, unless you consider Satan your ally, *“Jew” is
your “enemy”:
John 8:44 (King James Version)
44Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye
will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the
truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he
speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
“That is one of the great lies of history. It is the foundation of all
the misery that has befallen the world.”-Benjamin Freedman:

A Religion Based On LIES:
Kol Nidre (Yom Kippur) proves . . .
Current Proof "Jew" are the liars of John 8:44:
The "Kol Nidre" (All Vows) prayer was regarded as a
"law". The effect of this "LAW OF
REVOCATION IN ADVANCE" obtained for all
who recited it each year on the eve of the
Day of Atonement divine dispensation from a
ll obligations acquired under "oaths, vows
and pledges" to be made or taken in the
COMING YEAR. The recital of the "Kol Nidre"
(All Vows) prayer on the eve of the Day of Atonement released those so-
called or self-styled "Jews" from any obligation under "oaths, vows or
pledges" entered into during the NEXT TWELVE MONTHS. The "oaths, vows
and pledges" made or taken by so-called or self-styled "Jews" were
made or taken "with tongue in cheek" for twelve months:
[“All personal vows we are likely to make, all personal oaths and
pledges we are likely to take between this Yom Kippur and the next Yom
Kippur, we publicly renounce. Let them all be relinquished and
abandoned, null and void, neither firm nor established. Let our
personal vows, pledges and oaths be considered neither vows nor
pledges nor oaths.”]

I don't know about "666" being anything special in bar code but I have
heard that Social Security has their computers programmed not to emit
"0000" as the last four digits or "666" anywhere in the code. There is
a whole block around "666" in the first three digits that are not
used.
Southwestern Bell offered me about five possible phone numbers in 1994
and let me pick. I picked one that belonged to a bankrupt business.
Believe it or not, I still get phone calls for the business. Seventeen
years later!
They had one that had "666" in it and I didn't take that one. They
commented that a lot of people picked something else and it sat there
for a while.
One area of central Houston (area code 713) had the "666" exchange. I
had a doctor and her office was in the 666 exchange. I had to call her
office when I was suffering through something I'd like to call "Prozac
poisoning" but I suspect it would have been called "antidepressant
induced bipolar mixed" nowadays. I tell my doctors "no penicillin and
no Prozac."
