Actually, the 1004 and the 1005 versions.  I could not remember the names.  The 
only place that I ever saw them was at the school.

The only thing that I really remember about them is that you had to know which 
panel(s) to kick to get the machine to boot.  The interlocks were very worn and 
did not seat properly.  We were told that some of the ones in the field were 
even worse.

ITYM UNIVAC 1005[1]. I had successfully ripped the memory out by the
roots; thank you for reminding me :-(

[1] SAAL was the assembler.
