Back in my day...
The first professional computer I worked on filled a room that was an entire NYC block long, Required Water Cooling, Room Temperature Controlled to 68 degrees, had a whooping 16K of RAM, and took 12 hours to compile.
We used the punch outs from punch cards as a confetti at football games.
The Transistor was the new HOT technology.
You WALKED to/from School if you lived 3 miles or less away.
A TI Scientific Calculator was over $100. So most of us used a Slide Rule instead.
Muscle Cars, actually HAD muscle. 10-12 second quarter miles were common.
