Re: was rats! vats! now nostalgia



Well, yeah--what do you think I'm emailing
you with ??? (heh-heh! !). Actually, my brother
had one of those -- remember "CLoad" ing a program ?
I think our first program was some Ghost in a house thing...
I remember the day we brought an XT 8MHz home.
We then thought the 286 clone would never
be outdone---I mean-- who the heck would ever use 42 M
of harddrive space ?? Right ?? <g> Shoulda bought stock
in Microsoft back then....
