I think if it was up to Dijkstra you'd never have been allowed to program. Instead you'd be still pushing the button and I'd probably be attaching the label.
Also I feel the pain, at one time I was the guy hitting enter every couple of minutes, then applying a label and putting the programmed eeprom in the tube.
- codr7 6y agoProbably, cranky old fart :) Damn, now I remember the tubes. Once a day or so a tube came back because one or more EPROMs where faulty which meant they all had to be verified.
