It's hard to believe that Windows 95 was released over twenty years ago. I remember purchasing a new IBM Aptiva with Windows 95 installed on it---and it wasn't the first new computer I had purchased, only the first computer I'd bought that didn't have a DOS operating system.

That video made me feel like a dinosaur. :-[

... i am feeling so old that sometimes i might i could still hear that ringin of the big bang in my ears  :-[

on the positive side:
a generation that had used it all. From the first 4-function calculator to a time in the still witnessable future (if the health stays ok-ish long enuf), where all commen cars, trucks and buses in the city are on automatic, hosekeeping C3PO-style robots roaming the streets to shop little things for their masters and cutting the bushes in the frontyard in the most artistic way with 'historical' meant for human-use garden scissors when done with their other more  important servant tasks...

...unfortunately the youngest master among them will seldom see the trimmed bushes because they constantly run around with augment reality glasses that superpose their surroundings with perfect illusions of augment realities of their choice.

My Daddy had a Slide Rule. His rule was you never get to slide on his watch.
