Obviously "editing a file with a magnetized needle" is a joke, but I recently noticed this core memory kit that includes a magnetized stylus to edit the memory contents.

In our tech museum at IBM Hursley, we have an example of early memory produced by French lacemakers, who had the rare ability to accurately thread the tiny ferrite(?) beads.

The museum's an incredible walk down memory lane, however old you are.
