An IBM 1402 high-speed card punch/reader shown in the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory computer center in 1967.
This little piece of history is an IBM 62PC Disk File, an IBM term for what has today become commonly known as the Hard Disk Drive. This particular model was the first ever hard disk example to use an 8 inch recording surface. It uses a mains driven spindle motor running at 3400 RPM via a belt drive and a voice coil head positioning actuator, under track follower servo control. Developed under the codename "Piccolo" at IBM Hursley in Hampshire, England, this drive shipped in 1979 and was included in a number of IBMs midrange systems. These included later versions of the System/34 (Introduced 1977), System/38 (Introduced 1979) and in some early AS/400 systems. IBM also shipped a washing machine sized storage facility called the 3310 Direct Access Storage Facility which had provision for up to two of this drives per cabinet for a total capacity of 129MB. This was primarily aimed at customers using the IBM 4331 Processor and those with the low end of the IBM System/370 range of processors. As far as I know, IBM continued producing these drives right up to 1991, presumably for customer support purposes. The cat got in the way, however she does show to good effect the size of this unit. Total capacity of this device is 64.5MB. Incredible how far technology has come in such a short space of time...
My car... Same location as the other camaro... loved the place so I had to do it with my own car. :)
I got more from this set coming up.
Strobist Spirit
Not really strobist but Strobist Spirit? getting your light off the camera and using a small source.. and done afford ably.
So how did I do it?
Small light source running off a another car's cigarette lighter. Long exposure of about 6 seconds to walk around the car.

If you are a child, you may not know what these are... They are the keys on an older IBM typewriter, before the Selectric came out.....Can you remember them jamming?

A fine mid range computer system for business. OS/400 is a really user friendly OS, probably the best thing IBM ever came up with. Probably the only thing IBM has ever come up with that I like, LOL.
On my way into today's Mashup camp I met one of the volunteers at the Computer History museum who took me in to see what he's up to. He worked for IBM for 35 years and is now spending his days fixing up one of the first IBM mainframes (i think it was a 1400).
Vista di una lama Blade IBM. Alla sinistra della lama si possono notare le due CPU quad core, al centro i banchi di RAM, in alto a destra l'hard disk di avvio allo stato solido (SSD) e in basso a destra la scheda QLogic FC (fiber channel) per il collegamento alla SAN.
