[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shik: [QB] My first computer was a Radio Shack TRS-80 color Computer with Extended 32K Basic memory. We had a cassette tape player hooked up to it to play games & programs , & an old "dial the number, listen for tone, & then slam it into the cups" type modem that ran at the then amazing speed of 300 baud. Which makes me want to share something I wrote on my LJ 2 weeks ago: [i]In 1985, two horny teenagers made a woman using a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTX500">Memotech MTX512 computer</A> with attached FDX system, utilizing a massive 64 KB of memory & a crappy little <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z80A">Z80A microprocessor.</A> Now, granted they had to tap into a military installation to get the extra processing power they needed to fuel their hoochie-birthing dreams, but military tech wasn't that far in advance of civilian tech at the time. Right now, I'm writing this on a computer that in modern terms is positively ancient. It's 6 years old. It's got the maximum memory of 1.5 GB. Its processor speed is only 800MHz, although there are upgrades available to bring it to a top of 1.5 GHz. It's got a modern OS & a user interface leaps & bounds over that of the Memotech used so long ago. And yet. And yet. I guess what I'm trying to say here is that despite all this technological advancement, I am still unable to build & infuse life into a woman. If any OS could do it, you KNOW it would be OS X. (Maybe Linux, too, but I'm not versed so well in that one.) What I'm trying to say here is that there's a market out there, ripe for the plucking. Now, I'm not doubting Steve Jobs' visionary talents, but sometimes I think he needs a little nudge at times. iSlut. 'S all I'm sayin', yo.[/i] [/QB][/QUOTE]
