A buddy hired me to do it for him before and after Y2K. I'd tell the young IT guys when they asked me how to do it, "Well first you need punchcards and a machine to sort them." That usually got rid of them.
One day I'll tell you the guys the tale of, "I Was A Teenage Tape Librarian", the most deadly of all positions in the computer rooms of the pre-pc era. Well, other than getting pneumonia. Those rooms had to be kept at a constant 63 degrees. Going in and out during the hot summer months played Hell on the sinuses and lungs.
A friends wife had a similar gig upgrading ancient hospital computer systems. It was the last of the "Geeks get even plucking the tech fearing bigshots" gold rush.
You should have been there in the 80's when you could charge 150 bucks per machine for "refurbishing" a business's pc's by simply cleaning the fan and turning up the resolution on the old monitors. You could do 10 or more in well under two hours, and they would pay for your travel to boot. It was like selling snake oil, except you didn't have to put on a show. As most of our customers were car dealers, I didn't feel bad about hosing them. Turnabout is fair play.
