Very cool.  They even have the first model of computer I ever laid hands
on - the IBM 5100.  My father was a programmer for Protection Mutual
Insurance back then and he brought this home to work on.  I learned some
basic programming (including For-Next loops!) on it and played games like
Trek and Hunt-The-Wumpus.  *sigh* Memories...
Damn!  Now I'm feeling old again...time to bring out the juvenile toys!
