Way back in the 1970s head guy walked into the computer room, I was sitting in front of the ASR-33 punching a program onto paper tape. He looked at it and said "WOW, THAT'S FAST!!!"
Almost had a fist fight, we'd been working since the previous day..most of the time waiting for that "fast" machine.
A note from back then, the optional cup-holder that mounted on the upper right of the ASR-33 was right over the hot power supply so it was better for coffee rather than beer...err...soda.
