As loathe as I am to ask rules questions about silver-bordered cards this is now legal so I need to know what judges think.
The line on the card that I'm concerned about is this:
Players can only play the first card of their program.
Does this mean that the only way you can cast spells at all with The Grand Calcutron on the battlefield is by playing the first card of your program? Can you not cast spells from your graveyard, exile, imprint, etc?
Edit: you know what, disregard this. Talking this out on Reddit some more made me realize that if this were the case then no one else could play their Commander either. I wouldn't agree to this ruling even if it was printed on the card.

It has been confirmed that the line "Players can only play the first card of their program." only refers to the cards in the program. You can cast any other cards from anywhere else unimpeded.
