oh, yeah? well, you young whippersnappers! when i was in 7th grade,
the extent of my exposure to computers was that i'd seen computers using
decks of punched cards...on our family's black and white tv.

Lucky kids. When I was in grade 7 and 8 I had a 386/25. And the old
XT
clone was kickin' around. And I think I still had the TRS-80 Model I
plugged in "for nostalgia" before its monitor gave up the ghost.
