But that bouncing ball reminds me of that first game on the Commodore 64, I am sure many of you remember!
Yeah. The good old C64. I remember the time when PCs were boring machine sitting on our dads' desks with nothing but a black screen with a green blip on it. Anyone remember the 8" floppies? Or the punchcard era? Those were the days when people were real people, computers were real computers and threads were growing at a rate of one post per hour

8" floppies on the VAX 780
What about the 8 track ?
But those old IBM computers had great keyboards.
Threads ? Are you saying there were forums back then ?
Only few computers could multi-thread

No forums, that was just a tribute to Douglas Adams

But yes, them 8 tracks, no harddisk and the 1024
bytes (yes 1 KB only) big system floppy! Multi-thread was a term known to my mom when she was knitting

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. - Douglas Adams (1952-2001)
