You can work at home with a computer? I have to get one of those.

We had one of these. I was five at the time and remember playing "Space Invaders" and learning to program in Basic. Now--just a "few" years later--I teach at a University in Indianapolis where I sometimes find myself trying to explain to my students what it was like back then. Thanks for the memories!

I love how excited people were over computers back then. I wish that excitement would come back.

@MattTheSaiyan Go to a store when the new iPhones release. There is still the same excitement.
