*SIGH* SS remembers the 8" floppy disks! They were actually floppy then and you could see the little arm inside the drive tapping away. A great big 8" black and green monitor on a stick went with it as well as a 9 pin dot matric printer!. didn't know what the internet was, but we still had to connect to a modem!
