Yes, I was a computer operator/mgr in the 80's.
Here is a page on the HP3000. The 2nd image has the 7933 404mb hard drives in the background.

The Seagate ST41200N was introduced in 1990 and was a 1GB 5.25" full height SCSI hard drive. I recall we had a SunServer with one of these.

Is this via the "new math" calculations made possible Southwest's new computer system or what?

One thing I don't see mentioned here (although I just skimmed the thread) as to a possible reason there are no red eye flights on SWA could be that the flight crew work under union collective bargaining agreements (they do) and their particular agreement could stipulate no scheduled red eyes. Just a thought.
