more from blah

I bought a Centris 660av in December 1993. Man was it a smoking machine. And then I replaced the clock crystal to speed it up from a pokey 25mhz to a whopping 33mhz! My current machine has more ram (1 gigabyte) than I had in hard disk space back then (and that's including the second SCSI drive that I added on later). At the time, that system cost $2900 compared to the estimated current price of about $30. We can only speculate as to how absurdly lame today's computers will be 10 years from now.
