My first computer was a Timex Sinclair that I hooked up to a tape recorder. One of biggest peeves in recent years is how many open tabs my computer will support. With my first two or three Windows machines, I could open 30 or 40 tabs without the computer batting an eye. With my last two or three, anything more than about 8 or 9 tabs will cause it to have a conniption and freeze up.
I also miss my early word processor that fit on a 128K disc. It was set up to do some things that even modern ones don't. And if I didn't still have a Norton Commander clone, then I might be tempted to use my computer as a desk ornament.
