I was a middle school student in the rural South when Bill Cosby shilled for the Texas Instruments TI-99 home computer in TV ads. Never athletic or romance love-machine material in school, I gravitated toward technology and tried desperately to find peers to share that interest. You couldn’t pay them! Instead of a Texas Instruments TI-99, my first was an Atari 800XL with a whopping 64 kilobytes of RAM—laughable by today's standards since wristwatches have more. Jersey Girl got a Commodore 64

Funny guy, but really bad at making predictions.

The Coca-Cola company was dumb as a fox when it "switched" to "new" Coke back in 1985. You don't need a marketing degree to understand that cola-drinkers are either Coke fans or Pepsi fans (apologies to RC.) So, what, did they think people who liked Pepsi would switch to "new" Coke and Coke drinkers would keep drinking it out of loyalty? BS! They knew damned well it would cause a backlash and they they could "save the day" by bringing back real Coke.

@theflairflopper Coke can't make New Coke again. If they tried, it would be old Coke. Or just pain Coke since it's not that old. If you had an old can of New Coke, then you would have Old Coke. If you have an old can of Coca-Cola Classic, then you would have Old Old Coke.

Im so glad this is on here. People kept saying it was Max Headroom that introduced New Coke, but it was Bill Cosby. Max Headroom just made general ads for Coke. When he said, "The new taste of coke, I THINK, but could be wrong, that was for when Coke brought it's original flavor back. It being new from "New Coke." Wikipedia completely screws all this information up. I wouldn't trust that site for ANY information. I have the contacts to COKE under my Max Videos. Type in HootyHaHa Max Headroom.

"New Coke" was awesome! I just wish that Coca Cola would make it available again. It was the best dark cola ever made. Nothing against classic Coca Cola. It is great, especially the real kind made with sugar from Mexico, but let's be honest here, people. "New Coke" was even better than the so-called "real thing". I understand that people get attached to a certain flavor, and they don't want change. I am the same way myself, but I cannot deny that New Coke was awesome!
