    I wrote my dissertation on an original blueberry iMac that I souped up with an extra 256K of RAM and an external floppy drive. I used WordPerfect 8 for Mac. I am, as they say, an old.https://twitter.com/billamend/status/1057656666303401994 …

        I like to tell my students about my old TRS80 color computer with 16K of RAM that was the envy of the neighborhood, just to watch their heads explode...

        That's nothing. I did the major seminar research paper for my M.A. at Cleveland State (non-thesis track) on an IBM Selectric with correction tape in 1989 at age 34. I'm REALLY old. 👩‍🦳#ReadyToRetire

        A friend got a computer with 20 megabytes of memory and I asked him what he would ever need that much memory for.

        I was once passably fluent in DOS. Now I have to start with each new device by disabling as many of the useless bells and whistles as possible. Old age is not for sissies.
