[PLUG] Computer History Question
|
Does anyone know what the following refer to?
1. "Electronic Tape"
2. "Common Lanuage Tape, Channels_____"
3. "Tabulating Cards"
4. "Wire Tranmission Bell Telephone"
I recently asked the City of Philadelphia for deed records on CD. The
above list are the storage media the City says it can provide the
records on.
I'm guessing from other forms that (1) refers to nine track tape. I'm
not sure what (2) is. Does anyone here know? Could "Common Language"
refer to Cobol? (3) I assume means punch cards. Does (4) mean
downloading via modem or something else?
Can anyone shed some light here?
Thanks.
