I can just picture it.......broken glass littering the parking lot and a black guy with a Jackson 5 afro wearing bright orange tights and a baby blue muscle shirt trying to run down the street with that thing.

Memory cheap today, the programmers can afford to write sloppy code.

Yup, memory gets cheap, code gets sloppy, and things start breaking.

Back in the mid to late 1980's my family had a Commodore 64 and I thought that was some high tech thing to have back in the day.

Man, I remember when those were cutting edge, yes I was envolved with computers back then and the Compaq DeskPro 386 was the shizzle! Well, then they had something like the DP 386se I think it was called.

As you can imagine it's been quite some time, but does that one use Extended/Expanded memory manager? Wow, i'm getting a headache just remembering all that stuff.

I can't believe the foresight Commodore had back in the 80s to put their website address right in the advertisement before Al Gore had even invented the internet yet. :icon_rofl:
