Very nice. Okay, I just spoke with him because I didn’t want to give you the wrong information. The first machine was a Photon machine, it would have been the one built into a desk, the second machine was a CompuGraphic, now most of the machines you see online are just headliners, don’t ask me how that works, but there was more to it than just the desk and keyboard part. It would have been a large cabinet that accepted paper tape to go through the motions of setting everything up on the film. The last machine was a Xylogic, I can’t find any information on the machine, I can only get a tape controller card for a PDP 11.
Here is a website that was pretty informative for what the process may have looked like.
There’s an alarming lack of fan art of antiquated typesetting machines. My grandfather’s father owned a publishing house and would have purchased one of the first photo typesetting machines. He told me about it, I can’t recall the model, but it was rudimentary still, requiring paper tape for storage and was integrated into the desk.
Fire escape. There were some pulleys and weights suspended above that looked neat.
I was told to never stop being me somewhat recently. It sounds nice, but man, I wish I could be the person others wanted me to be instead of just being alone.
This is romance, everything else is a vague imitation.

Oh interesting, I didn’t know about Multics.
Eternally upset I missed the public access Multics installation that apparently existed a few years ago before blipping off the face of the internet... who wants to start a new one with me?
One of mine to add.

My blog, or attempt at one. On the internet I’m a 22 year old guy, but in real life I’m, well… the same. (My pfp is what I look like)
