Tom~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~ -
That's amazing to know a lot of us have lived through all those changes and more.
And I think about what my parents and their parents lived through.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -

Cool... but did you ever lug a Kaypro or Osborne around?
I had a couple of professors in grad school who had each of those luggables when they were quite the status symbol.
The coolest single 'pute I ever used was a Tektronix 4051.
It had this really hip on-board graphics using a storage display.
It also had a built in firmware BASIC with a dynamic range of 10^-307 to 10^+307 (!?!)
We actually ported some nonlinear regression analysis s/w (David Rodbard's LIGAND program) over to it from a DEC VAX platform because our datasets were so big we were overflowing the DEC BASIC interpreter with some of the matrix operations.
That 4051 was built like a freaking tank, too.

A DEC VAX.
Boy do I remember them. I worked for them for 3 years.
They paid to relocate me to Dallas back in 1992.
