Description
In 1978, the Computer Center at Appalachian State University (1967-current) operated a UNIVAC Series 70/46 with eight disk files, four tape drives, two printers, two card readers, and one card punch, and a UNIVAC Series 90/60 with one MB memory, four tape drives, 500KB storage space, one printer, and a card reader. In the foreground are actuators for reading the disk packs. An empty carrying case for a disk pack rests on one of the actuators to the right. A. S. Gloster, director of the Computer Center, is standing in the center. Three terminals and the central processing units are in the middle of the image, and the magnetic tape readers are against the back wall. An empty carrying case for a disk pack rests on one of the actuators to the right. The Computer Center began in 1968 and offered computing support for administrative offices and a laboratory for computer science students.
