    Mostly likely pre-Windows.

    It's probably a tad more today.

    EDIT: Apparently it was new in 1983. Just before the Apple Macintosh.

    Also, those green buttons look like they'd require two fingers to depress. Workplace repetitive motion/stress injury.

    Is that Celine Dion?

    Dunno. I swear I recognize her but just can't put my finger on who she is.

    Yep, looks as bad as her...I hate to call it music...let's just say her attempts at making sounds.

    Wow. That is her.

    Apparently, she has been diagnosed with a rare disease - SPS - https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/articles/6076-stiff-person-syndrome

    @Keiko, one of my first adventures on Oahu in the early 80's.

    Hanauma Bay. It's about a 45 minute drive from where I am. Lots of tourists and an excellent site for snorkling with all the reef fish.

    I've gotta say -- it makes putting pineapple on one seem pretty benign. :#

    We put pineapple on our pizzas here. Pineapple & ham and call it Hawaiian pizza. It's one of my faves honestly. There used to be a restaurant/bakery here that made banana pies and they were really, really good. Flamingo Restaurant chain that went out of business a few years ago after operating for many years locally. I used to eat the teri steak, shrimp tempura combo plate there all the time and have the banana pie for dessert. Good eats!

    I used to think pineapple and ham pizza was sacrilegious until I actually tried it. Not my favorite, but not bad.

    ^^^^ I know that feeling! I am so very much allergic to mushrooms. Learned the hard way a few times and confirmed with allergy tests.

    We're days away from seeing that, looking for our birdfeeders. :#

    Well, OK, not exactly... no water here.
    But that's pretty much what I am thinking of when I see the results of...you know... this.
