Back in the 80’s I supervised a group that maintained and programmed Westinghouse mainframe data acquisition computers that used core memory. They were programmed using reverse Polish notation and hex on a terminal. It took a creative verbal dance to finally justify purchasing an AT clone with a hard drive to store some code and data for the interface. Good times!
