re: 1130 games

[Jeff Jonas]

How I wish folks fron NYC's Stuyvesant High School
were on this list. They had a cartridge
full of games such as Yahtzee, tic-tac-toe
and fun utilities such as

- duplicate a full deck of cards, even binary.
It alternated stackers when making multiple copies
and had a trailing card with
"END" punched across the card, in italics!

- enter text at the console keyboard,
it punched a card with the text in block letters.
The console switches selected
number of spaces between letters,
left/center/right justified,
underline and/or line on top too.


MIT did independent work such as full replacements
of the monitor, linker & compilers.

Stuyvesant's 1130 was the first computer I ever used, but I've got no idea what became of the 1130 and that games cartridge after I in 1976.
