Ancient Peripherals

I've used toggle switches, slow (i.e., 110 baud) paper tape, DECtape, RM03s, RM05s, RK05s and other ridiculously large magnetic media that stored tiny amounts of data. I can only think of a few stories about any of them that might warrant writing down. Anyone who worked with DEC equipment back in the day played with almost all of that stuff.

I do, however, have a relatively uncommon punch card story.
