Yep around mid 80's iirc, my sisters boyfriend at the time had one and what a Cnut he was.

Atari coming out in the 70's made more of an impact IMO .

Had to have a chat with my Step Son today about his poor behavior and the following consequences of it. Then it struck me, when the feck did I grow up? I still laugh at fart jokes and I like to create mayhem, at least I thought that I did.

Getting old sucks.

Ah yes, these days we've moved upmarket to using rucksacks as goalpoasts and pictures on our bulletin boards. I do remember floppy discs though...and having to move 200MB worth of data from my grandfather's computer to ours on them...

This thread has made me giggle.

Computers? I remember looking up customer details on microfiche.

You never had to switch it off and back on - just change the bulb occasionally.
