Old LabVIEW versions

[_Bryan]

I was just given a box of LabVIEW stuff from another part of the company to see if I wanted anything.  There are manuals from LV 3.1 and software and manuals from 4.1.  I did get a sc-2345 chassis that is full of modules, 3 scb-68's, a few scxi chassis, some GPIB cables, an old AT-MIO-64E-3 ISA card and assorted breakout boards.

Not the most exciting day, but some interesting free stuff for me!  I just hope this is not my christmas bonus......

Well, it's not much of a bonus.

Some people think it's worth about $300 :), maybe you can put in on ebay.

I would like to see LV1.0 in action.  I've heard it was only for the Mac, and that if you moved any object, the wire would break.  Also it was in black and white.  WOW.

I was inspired to look at some of my old code (V 1 or 2) (printed out on a dot matrix printer).  An embarassing number of sequence structures, the controls are chunky, yet I am sure the retro look will make a comeback.  There was also something different about the For Loops, they were 4 pages back then and now they are 3 pages.

And as noted, if what we have today are "bugs" I would describe what we had back then as the creatures from Alien.

I can't find my old LV disks, but I did find HiQ ver.1 for the mac.

At the 20th LabVIEW anniversary at NI week, they had an old MAC set up so you could try it.

NI , PLEASE set up a webcam just in front of that MAC 

and extra KUDOS for a Browser frontend to control the mouse and keyboard 🙂

Maybe someone can post some nostalgic screenshots of very old versions. I think I started with 5 and if I remember correctly, there is not much of a change in the look and feel up to 7.

I still remember those old days when I had to HP-VEE...

Have a look at the LabVIEW 1.2 User Manual from 1989. It has some screenshots. (as e.g. used here).
