Hi,

HP used to have a small card reader (about the size of a modern desktop
PC) that could read punched cards and mark sense cards.  They may
have OEM'd it from someone else.  I remember using one, once, on a Series
III.

My question: does anyone remember the nasty nickname it had?  (The nickname
was well earned: the reader wasn't very reliable.)

thanks,

Stan
