In the late 70s, I was a computer operator in the US Air Force. The base computer was a Burroughs B3500 with core memory (640k I think). With peripherals such as a punch card reader, card punch, printer, disk drives, and a printer, it took up a room about 1200 square feet. I am amazed at how computers have increased in power while shrinking in size. I now carry way more computing power than that B3500 in my pocket (smartphone).

You can get a watch with more computing power than the B3500.
