Oh…I feel old now
It gets worse when I consider that my grandkids, if ever I have, will probably have no clue what the heck a CD was. They may not even know what a DVD was, since in all probability the whole concept of movies served up on physical media — not to mention movie rental — will be dead within another decade or two.
And don’t get me started on what they’ll probably say when they behold my ancient Canon AE-1 camera, or my “modern” EOS 350D digital SLR: “Eight megapixels, grandpa? Did the pictures even look good?”
The funniest thing is that even the producers mistook a 5.25 for an 8-inch diskette!
Yup–we’re officially old!
Wonder what the kids would’ve thought of a sliderule?! LOL!
I still have my grandfather’s slide rule…somewhere.
I remember someone told me a couple of years ago that a child saw a guy using a typewriter on an old office.
The child was really impressed to see such a modern computer that had an embedded printer and dispensed the need of a display monitor.
Yeah… modern indeed.
Everything old is new again?
