Simple things were simple, complex things were impossible, mostly because computers of that type and era didn't have the RAM.

Rose-colored glasses are nice, but they say a lot more about the wearer than the era.

Amen, I poked around on c-64 emulator one time looking for a nostalgia rush, all I got was headache; that inexorable blinking cursor. Living in the rural midwest, my 80's where an exercise in frustration due to lack of information and resources. Is there a word for good nostalgia and bad nostalgia? Remorse I guess.
