Kevin,
I have to give it to you. I just started a new job, I have a brand new laptop
and desktop, both 2.4 gig processors. Can't beat it.
Wonder how long of a shelf life these things will have. Supposed to be
processor speed doubles every 18 months right?

It's funny. As soon as someone mentions something like the Amiga it gets
into a pissing match as to what was the oldest, crappiest machine people
worked with. I know I kinda started it, but it's just a funny behavioral
observation.
Yes, I used a trash80. I used a TI-99. Heck, a friend and I did BBSing with
a TI-99. I used a TRS-somethingorother that was a prototypical laptop. It
had a built-in screen, keyboard and all and came with a leatherette slip
case. I never used punch cards, but I did have an account on a Cray X-MP. I
was an Atari 2600 junky and spent $50 on Pac-Man the day it came out. I
wrote games on the Apple I. I played with the Atari Jaguar. I drooled over
the Apple Lisa.
For all that, I most want to use the computer I'm using right now. Or maybe
the one I'll be building next week.
