grungy-gonads 54 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 ooo-er indeed. Although, Tubby Beaver, you marvelling at someone elses 154 incher is a perhaps just a little disturbing. Silly inch related jokes aside though, I remember when I had a small 15 inch as well. Those 24 inch whoppers out there now are perhaps too big. It sure did take them a long time to get some decent looking computers out though. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I was just at the local bank and they've got a few of those mega-computers that have a 8" screen with green writing on black. Link to post Share on other sites
the snowboarding vicar 1 Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 They have some of them in my bank too. I hope my records aren't on there! Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Your records are nice n safe in a Hitachi mainframe. The teller terminals are connected to it via the interbranch network. Very quick and efficient as they are text based, no fancy graphics. It probably a proprietory system. The developers have died of old age so they can't upgrade. Link to post Share on other sites
