I worked with the UNIVAC 1050-II back in the in Air Force 1980's. We upgraded to the Sperry 1100 somewhere around 1985. Interestingly enough is that we still used some 1050 equipment well into the 90's. The card sorter, card interpeter and the report decollater
wlanman99, thank you very much for your feedback and info! Glad you enjoyed the video. We also have a video on the UNIVAC-1050-II that has some great Air Force footage. Thanks again! ~ Victor, CHAP

Pretty much a turning point in computing history, fascinating.
