Ha! The entire memory of those things is just a fraction of what we consider a "unit" of memory today. But, in my 6 years of middle school and high school, i had a grand total of 2 significant word processor file losses! And it was my fault for not saving them. (really, in the early days, i would forget to save until i was done, and that was almost never a problem!). I remember talking to my friends in our math classes about some math problem, then coming home and programming it on my sinclair to get the answer. We even had that little thermal plotter, and i setup my printout routines to print continuously so i could graph functions for large amounts of time. I'd come into school with a 4" by 2 foot printout! Sorry to go on like this. Just a bit of fun nostalgia..... huff
