[Rhodes22-list] Missing link My Hot Key

[Ronald Lipton]

The 1401 was used for programming classes and the "computer club" in my
high school (class of '69).  It was pretty old at the time.
It was a decimal machine - the words were base 10
rather than binary as all rational computers have.  It also had an 
early version
of itunes.  You could put a transistor radio on top of the CPU and load 
in
a card deck with a set of programs which would loop at varying rates 
playing
things like "Take me out to the Ballgame"  through the transistor 
radio.  I also
used the 1130, but that was later, in college.
