I kinda' got a bit overwhelmed here a few minutes ago
thinking back on how our PC technology have grown. I can
still remember getting a 14.4 modem and thinking it was
really something. (and even remember using 5 1/4" floppies
to boot up the PC too!)
At this moment, I have 3 browser windows open, Photoshop
rendering, a shop management program running via a network
between 2 PC's, accessing info on 4 hard drives, emailing seven 1MB
images across the ocean over to Italy, and still checking email once
every minute.
Multi-tasking is an amazing thing isn't it?
Seems like not so long ago, it was
one......thing......at......a......time...... and then there was there
dreaded try to print something - go off and do something
else while THAT was in progress.
Amazing to stop and think of how this is all really
happpening now.
The magic smoke in these boxes. Wow!
