1989 - it's a basic program I wrote.

Old media for old files, makes sense. 🙂

At work, in my server room I have files on disks that I've never even seen before until working here. They look like supersized 5'.25" floppies. Probably some weird shit from the late 70's.

I can't access them though (obviously) so the oldest stuff is probably from the mid 80's.
