"I'd forgotten I was that old."

I wrote my Master's thesis on a Kaypro. So did my wife.

I've got two in the closet. Still remember all the WordStar commands.

My 10 y.o. uses it sometimes for Pong.

A lot of productivity for such a simple machine. I ran a family video rental business on mine, spreadsheets, the works. And to think, it was all leading to this. Yes, we are older than Kaypro!

I wrote a lot of papers in Wordstar when working my MDiv.

Thanks for the reminder. WordStar was the best! I wish I'd never graduated.

I not only remember the Wordstar commands--I also use them on a daily basis!
