The PDP 15 was paper tape bootstrapped and it was everyone's job to make sure they never booted it without a spare strip handy because about every 10th time the reader ate the paper.

You sound like a Real Programmer! (Royal McBee is now forever linked with the epic tale of Mel, the Real Programmer.)Computers I've programmed include the IBM650, 1620, 1401, 709, 7090, 7094 and 360. Univac 1108, Burroughs B5500, 6500, 6700. Also a bunch of old, niche junk like the Royal McBee LGP30 and a Daystrom process control computer.
