Just barely too young, Neil.

I took CS103 and CS203 in 1994/1995 at MU. We used VMS on the mainframe 
with a TN3270 interface to it. Pascal, of course.

I wrote my programs in TurboPascal, b/c the debugging was so much easier. 
Then, it was a simple port to ANSI Pascal and Telnet to the mainframe.

Actually, VMS commands were pretty straightforward and much like NT 3.5/4.0 
command line stuff. I think I remember that NT came from a VMS-like background.

Just after I finished the 103/203 series, they changed to Java on UNIX.
