I use to post under the name Goat. Nothing lasts forever but I am a
little shocked. ROFF was a flurry of activity at one time.
Really guys, did everybody jump to a forum or is this ember just
hardly glowing?

Heck, I never have been able to find the facebook page...


I guess that makes me a geezer?

I rather like this place now -- just a few old timers gathered around
a dying campfire.

Just thought of another. Last week, the 386SX AST PC we have been using
since it was new for our phone ACD system gave out. I was the only one who
was saddened.

I remember punch cards and card readers. As well as all of the above.
Including cassette tape storage.
