Not sure if you ever experienced Wang’s.. I wrote the email system in Procedure language. My first foray into programming. It was great, but slooooow. Once the company saw it, and got excited, I self taught COBOL, and that made a huge performance boost.

Alrighty, really going. G’night for now. Good luck with the clipboard.

No, sorry, I don't think I ever used it, but COBOL was my language of choice.

We had a Hungarian mainframe copied from a Bull Mitre MTM2 machine.

My father had imported Videoton loudspeakers from there, which became a huge success and so started a lifelong relationship with Hungary.

To this day, I can swear like a trooper in fluent Magyar 😂

This is a review of the loudspeakers the Dad imported, it mentions him by name, which is nostalgic for me as he died last year:
