Jeff,

Geez, I hate when you guys reminisce about the past. I'm too young to remember any of that stuff...

I once saw a HeathKit in a technology museum... And I heard about something called an Atari...

I remember buying an atari 800 48 k thinking wow, 48 k, who would ever use it all. I had a tape drive too. and I mean an audio tape drive.

Once I bought an Amstrad 512K CGA monitor one floppy, no HD no modem for $2300

What a brilliant move that was.

I had a texas instrument TI449A remember those. I had the 32 K card with Sprite graphics

I also remember lusting for this $14,000 NEC 286 laptop docking statoin
