About This Item

Hollerith Card II

In 1896 Herman Hollerith organized the Tabulating Machines Company, which grew in subsequent mergers to become the IBM of today. The Hollerith punched card was the principal means for recording, accounting and archiving functions, not to mention the US census, until recently. In the early 1960's Hollerith cards were the only practical means to input programs for a IBM mainframe, but today these cards are seldom seen.

Well, he's 20 miles closer to RTP than he was last night. There is a HUGE IBM campus over there but it is all posted No Tresspassing so we'll drop him in our TB Dude Ranch out front and hopefully someone who works out at the campus can swing by and grab him so he can at least go visit ....
