My first job was in a small service bureau running a Univac 9300
(their answer to the IBM 360/20).  It had 16K of memory, and no
disks or tapes - just cards.  Yet we ran accounts receivables,
general ledgers, payrolls, etc. for all sorts of companies that were
too small to afford even a computer like ours (250K 1970 dollars).

Later we added disks and expanded the memory to 32K.  At first
we didn't know what to do with all that space - although we soon
figured it out.
