IBM 726 magnetic tape drive was introduced in 1952 and was the first commercially available magnetic tape storage system. A tape could hold about a megabyte of data (an enormous amount of storage for the day)

Aptiva computers were donated by IBM to the children's hospital where I work to allow them to have internet access during their stay. But it quickly turned into a Counter-Strike arena...

Liberty Bridge over the Danube, Budapest - (Szabadság-híd a Dunán, Budapest), 2024.

After an enlightening, exhausting and very hot (over 40 degrees C on several days) trip to Central Europe, I am home for a few days before leaving for the West Coast. I shall try to queue some photos for the next couple of weeks, though I have all too many other things I should deal with.

Budapest is a fascinating place, an Imperial City with an unparalleled collection of architecture from the late medieval period to the present. Like Paris, Budapest makes the most of its riverfront, so a walk along the riverside brings all kinds of wondrous things into view. The Liberty Bridge was built in the 1890s and was originally named in honor of Emperor Franz Josef. It remains one of the most impressive of the several fine bridges across the Danube - Dunán - Duanj - Donau to use four of the several names the great river is given.
