Great picture. I used an Univac 1110 at the University of Paris (Orsay) 1979-1984, replaced 1984 by the water cooled Univac 1100/90. There was one 770 printer and interesting legacy devices like FH1782 and FH432 drums remaining from their former Univac 1108 ! Unfortunately I don’t find pictures from that time anymore …

Love the picture, brings back memories of waiting for nightly batch jobs to finish, that’s if they didn’t fall over.. and boxes of 4 part, and the decolator, and tapes, and tapes, and tapes

I’ve seen uverse in action and to be honest it blows comcast crappy customer service out of the water. So far my only complaint is that the appt is two and a half weeks away from the current date. Let’s hope for a decent speed at twelve mbps plus hd tv. Will be updating.

What a great picture! I was the 1100 series Product Manager for Sperry Univac Southern Operations. How are you Art?

I can only imagine. The good news for me is that the outside installer told me that I’m less than 500′ from the DLSAM (or whatever the outside AT&T equipment is called that provides the uVerse service) so I should get a good connection once it’s installed.

I’m nervous as to whether I actually have a new appointment because I just got a strange automated call about rescheduling my VOIP service.

Stay tuned …

HA! You made out better than a friend here in Jax. He bought the same package, canceled his Comcast, bought an HD over-the-air antenna for his guest room TV and patiently awaited the installers. At the end of the appointment window, they show up to tell him that he is too far from the repeater and they can’t install it because the QOS would not meet their standards! Now Comcast doesn’t want to let him reconnect under is old, and more favorable, plan!

Yes, the Sperry Univac Florida district was truly a great place to work. We had a great leader in Carl Straw and many very talented hard working individuals!

Hey John! This is great. I remember the Sperry Univac 1100 Series well. What a great system! You recall, I’m sure, that you and Doug E. helped with the conversion from the RCA systems to the 1100′s in Tallahassee. What a great run that was. We had a good team that did an amazing job. Good memories.
