not a typical puzzle for you. Now I'll have to look at puzzle 6435 and see your inspiration.

#5 - Sorry to say this was before my time. I started programming on a Commodore 64 (before I knew what programming was).

#6 - I did think about it. :)

JoDeen, it was considered quite special to be able to run your manila cards through the card reader and end up with a punched tape- in various pastel colors. And the box that caught the little "confetti" was fair game for dumping in someone's hair. Can you just imagine how pretty that looked all scattered through a great big natural afro?!? Thanks for the puzzle, and the memory.

Fun challenging solve!
I thought your puzzle was to test my color logic abilities! :)
After, reading the comments I see what your goal was.
#11: Gator (gator) on Jun 16, 2011
Well perhaps it has two goals... :)

Probably the hardest 8x8 I've ever seen!

JoDeen - I started with computer programming in 1963 with a mainframe as big as my current house.

Judy - My dad is an electronics engineer who likes to tell stories of the old giant mainframes. I've already started my Christmas shopping and part of my dad's gift this year is a tiny piece of PCB from the original CRAY-1. Thought he'd find it interesting :)
