Price we pay for NOT knowing the future...

When you compare this too todays technology
and the poor fools that bought it this is funny...

[ShadowZ]

Um... yeah, that's a bit too overpriced, LOL.

Even when you do consider the fact that the most common PC back then was like Commodores, Amigas, Mac's, etc.

I think the highest price for them was no more than $500?

(But I don't know off-hand, I was only 2 years old at the time, Lol!)

i remember seeing one of these at a local radio shack
and it had an $8500 price tag so i wnt with a radioshack color
computer with 2 daisy chained external 5 1/4 floppy drives

Lol, my first computer was a Commodor. Only ran in DOS! Had a Matrix dot printer and a floppy disk drive ( the floppy disk was REALLY a floppy disk).

Lol, at the time I thought it couldn't get any better than that !

I fantasize about that all the time, more so than my sexual fantasies.

[ShArP]

but just think, in say 30 years from today, we will look back and laugh at what people paid today's computers people they will probably be more advanced then

In 30 years, they may be already have cybernetic technologies straightened out.

Imagine calling anyone or anywhere just by sticking your hand over your ears...

or a g man listeneng in on any one of his choice without them knowing
and hideing this fact allways from public knoledge. and with the technology
they can track you anytime any where anyone in the world.. and if they
want too just press a button and it explodes in your head...on and on and on and on

[ShadowZ]

Now why the hell would anybody want to explode a head? You can do that easily by forcing people to read all the books in the Congressional library in one week.
