If you’re too young to have experienced Univac of Eniacs or any of the ACs, like I am, this bit of computing history, at 36 years old, is all sorts of cool.

Simply called Conversation with Univac, Scott Lloyd and his wife Nancy had this little chat with the massive computer back in the day, and saved the printout. Recently they uncovered it, sent it in to Boing Boing, and the rest is, as I said, history (again). [Scott Lloyd’s Flickr via Boing Boing]
