On reason those IBM punch cards often misfed was that they were manufactured to exacting specifications and had to be kept in temperature/humidity controlled environments to maintain those specs. Special rotary presses were designed by IBM to process specially prepared card stock, all of which was quite expensive, and for a time sales of punch cards accounted for 25% of IBM profits!

The first mainframe computer I had access to was an IBM 1401; a very expensive machine, with heavy monthly service costs. Those card punch/readers could be a nightmare, and didn't always read even very simple programs accurately, and that didn't give people a good introduction to computing (it killed my interest in programming). When they worked, we thought that they were marvellous. How times have changed! You're very fortunate to have access to two '1401's that still work well, but to have hands-on experience with an AGC is a very rare privilege indeed. Thanks for the awesome video series Marc. It has been a pleasure, and very educational, to follow along with the project. A big 'Well done! Thank-you!' to all of the team.

Seeing you play with the 1401 Mainframe reminds me of when I learned COBOL on an IBM System 32 (It was a desk-sized computer) with dual 8-inch floppy drives and ran on core-memory. We had IBM 26 card punchers and IBM 3741 floppy stations to enter the code. I really enjoyed the class and even got to play the sysop as I turned in my projects usually on the first day (we had a whole week to complete them). Our instructor was a retired IBM tech who could fix the computer when it broke and even added a few upgrades. Unfortunately, by the time I entered my first real job (Air Force), the IBM equipment was being replaced by newer, faster units, (usually mini-computers) and my hopes of getting into mainframe programming went the way of the Dodo bird.

Loved working those old systems, built wth pride, and strong as a battleship. The power consumption was impressive, three parallel systems, two primary, and one on standby. Most folks today have no idea what went into these early systems. Sure wish I had kept a few stacks of code. Lots of cards, tape reels...then later, hefty disc packs.

My first paying job outside tech college (~1996) was in the banking industry, and we had a Sequoia mainframe (actually two, the other one at a disaster recovery site). I recall someone coming out (to Aus) from the US to assist getting things running quicker, as it was getting a little slow. One item surprised me in my youthful naivety, and that was a relatively innocuous "ding". The tellers etc were using Wyse dumb terminals, and in some cases the system had been set up to send a "ding" to the terminal, for reasons that escape me now, but removing that one operation did improve the overall processing speed. Quite a few other tweaks were applied, which added up. That 15-or-so cabinet monster was replaced with a one cabinet HP machine in about 2000.

The 1402 read/punch was a mechanical marvel. Back in 1976 my friends and I inherited 1402 from a bank that sent their 1401, 1403 and 72(?)K word core memory expander elsewhere. That seemed odd because the system power supplies are in the 1402. The 1402 weighs 1,268 pounds! The rest of the system pretty much needs the 1402. Anyway, my recollection is the card weight makes a big difference. If I recollect right, you want to use the flat metal weight on the read side and the weight with the blue plastic handle on the punch side. Also the cards should be in good condition; too humid and the cards will jam. What is cool is the 1402 reads and punches cards broadside doing all 80 columns one row at a time. With the solar CB option, the 1402 could read 800 cards per minute and punch about 250 cards per minute. All I have left of the old 1402 is the unjamming crank handle which I saw being put to use in the video. Thanks for the memories!

When I first started with my current employer I used the name of one of my cats for the routines that measured system performance. I chose her name because it was guaranteed to be unique in the logs so grepping for her was super easy. A director wanted to know how well the system was performing so i used *molly* to extract the stats. The guy looks at me and asks ? "Will customers see that?" I smiled and said no and thankfully that was the end of it. 10 years later I fear the outcome would be much different. That said it's great to see that the trailblazers had a sense of humor too!
