You young whippersnapper! I had a transistor radio in High School. Beepers were science fiction, like Dick Tracy watches, computers, phones with no wires.
I got my first transistor radio aged 11 (1981)

Until about 1978 we had a colour valve TV.

Making a phone call in the UK at the time cost a fortune!
The phone also had a rotary dial and mechanical bell!

Ugh I remember having to pay monthly to "rent" that rotary phone from the phone company. What the hell man..... We've been getting ripped off for years. Currently we "rent" our modem/router for $5 a month. Worth it since I've started germing seeds on it and a spill is inevitable. Heh, nah guys dunno how I've done it. Yeah, 2 in 2 months, crazy....

That memory pack is funny
 
She kept knocking my hand around while I was trying to work so she could lick the pumpkin goo off the pumpkin. Good thing I had the dremel on the lowest setting cause she booped the bit with her nose a few times. I ended up having to kick her out when I got to the actual design part lol. And then eventually I went down stairs and spent 3 hours cleaning up the design and finishing it off with a razor blade on the couch while hubby played the new Farcry till he fell asleep lmao.
The new Far Cry looks interesting. It'll come down in price in a few months and that's when I'll probably get it..
