Good one. Just wish I knew what he was saying!
Waits tables at Ihop too. I've seen her there.
Those old TRS-80 Model IIIs were built to last.
In my first law clerk job, the partners at the firm was very proud of its computerized legal research system. It featured a TRS-80 Model III with twin 8 inch (yes, 8 inch, not 3.5, not 5.25) floopy drives. You clearly remember the good old days of booting up the computer from a system disk...and yes the 300 baud moden that you put the telephone handset on.
Mind you, that's what the firm had when I started there....IN 1997. They were so proud.
I didn't have the heart to tell them that my 486, 100 mhz machine that I got when I started law school in 1995 (and was not the fastest then) with its 14.4k modem ran rings around the old Model III. What I did not have, however, was a 32" long daisy wheel printer that did an great impression of an earthquake when it started printing. That's worth something.
Pfft. You guys are just kids. I'm so old my kids remember when the Pentagon used the large floppy discs (back when they actually flopped) in the computers that were used for THE missiles. Can you imagine?
Don't make fun of Churchmouse!!!!
