"ayyuh, sumtaimes, but hit don't signify nun.

You don't say.

[King Prout]

um. wow.
uh... one question: wasn't Osiris the god of the Dead? Wasn't Amun/Ra the Sun God?
is it me, or is it that these anti-Catholic 'tards can't get their Egyptian mythology straight?

oh, okay, okay... that was three questions, and the last one was a compound.

"CPU cabinet the size of a large refrigerator. Disk drives the size of washing machines! A linker that cried and quit if your program was bigger than 64K.

I see you have intimate knowledge. You did forget the 'bootstrap' toggle switches on the front though.

[King Prout]

64k. Luxury. I remember paying $200 to update my Trash-80 to 16k. Another $100 for a memory chip to add an 8th bit to video, so I could display lowercase.

[b_sharp]

Not that you guys aren't interesting (in your own weird ways), but I'm heading over to the University of Idaho Bans All Alternatives to Evolution thread.

[King Prout]

Ow! Money was still money a quarter-century ago. (OK, we didn't think so at the time but NOW we do.)

[b_sharp]

Sorry. This or this

[King Prout]

I found it ;)

[ml1954]

RIP RSX-11M.

[VadeRetro]

Not to mention RSX-11D and IAS. Supposedly, RSX stood for "real slow exec."

[Pipeline]

I evolved from my parents.


Interesting view of evolution theory.
