Erk... My first programming experience was on an HP9830A micro.
Written in Basic to automate the tonnage and grade analysis, it did in 1 day what two ladies took a month with calculators working in parallel (because of errors) to do.
That was in 1976 (gulp). You just don't get those big gains anymore in the biz do you?
