More Information

Not trying to be nostalgic, but a friend of mine where discusing where computer might be in a few years then remeber the geto DOS boxes we used to play on...and well the 'back in my day...' jokes came up, so I kind of want to here what you guys had.

1.  Back in my day we could count the pixels.

2.  Back in my day we had to use VHS to record shows.

3.  Back in my day you where considered a Geek if you could get '12:00' to stop flashing on the VCR.

4.  Back in my day we didn't have wireless controllers

Hahah.... back in the day there was talk about the 27" iMac! Back in the day!
Back in my day you were "cool" If you had a Ipod
so back in the 80's then? I still have my first Ipod, 2nd gen classic from 2002
the ipod of the 80s was the sony walkman :)
iPods back in my day was a transistor radio that only received the AM band...no FM! That, and if you wanted to listen to recorded music, you had a battery powered reel-to-reel tape recorder. Mono, BTW...no stereo!
Well, you had the walkman, does that count?

lol.

007 goldeneye on n64, that is all.
You were cool if your parents bought you a gray brick.
Back in my day I had to blow into video game cartridges to get them to work. Speaking of which, I just decided to play my N64 with my friend yesturday, it makes me sad that my N64 still works after all these years but my Xbox 360 is dead after only one or two...
That's because today electronics are alot cheaper. Same with my old PS1 still works, but my PS3 just died.
Tech used to be a lot simpler too and less densly packed in. Think how much hardware power you can fit into something the size of the original PS1 now lol. You could fit a PS3 in it with the "Slim" shrink.
word. Catridges...........ah yes....cartridges.
