LOL.. I'm on the cusp. My brother who was 2 years older than me took his first programming class in Fortran his freshman year of H.S. on a mainframe using punch cards.

They still call a batch control file a "job card" in the mainframe world today, long after it stopped being a punched card (or giant stack thereof).
