I've seen virtual card punches connected to virtual card readers; that
works. (At one time, my employer sent mail over that transport, with
a sendmail at each end, and an RJE link thrown in too. Matching
technologies, I suppose.)
What's more amusing is connecting a virtual line printer (132 columns
wide) to a virtual card reader (80 columns wide). As I recall, you
get a combination of a virtual card jam and virtual printer jam. I
forget what it takes to fix it; perhaps destruction of all relevant
virtual machines, or at least virtual devices?
