Yeah, I told my daughter about the cassette tape deck that plugged in to my VIC 20! I wanted a Commodore 64 (color) SOOO bad back then because I was writing programs and the Commodore 64 was so much more advanced! Now my daughter has to show me how to get the stupid memory stick out of the computer with the data still on it. Kev wants all these fancy programs on our computer. I want word and paint. I hate Vista because the more "user friendly" the computer gets...the less I can use it.
Yeah- everyone at my office hates Office 2007. It's supposedly user friendly, but aside from one or two small changes that I like, the rest of it is so user UN-friendly that IT had to have a special guide linked into our intranet that shows us where the darn features have disappeared to in Word and Excel.
I also find it funny that without the internet, I would never have discovered so many of the esoteric crafts I do, nor been able to find nearly as much information about them! :)
Yeah, my sister can't remember a time before VCRs or microwave ovens. I can't live without my iPod, cel phone or the internet. I can't imagine life 30 years from now.
