Besides the first day I sat at the PDP-7 console, one of the biggest Unix
thrills came when when I logged in remotely to the new Cray at Bell Labs.
Here was a monster machine with a manual I had never seen, and I was able
to compile and run a program on it at the first try. God bless sh, ed, cc,
and a.out.
