My Third Computer

October 25, 2009

Details here.

After that (in 1989) I bought a series of Windows laptops and desktops manufactured by Dell, Gateway and Toshiba. Twenty years later, I moved to my current system.

I also remember opining the following:
1) “who in their right minds would try to run a software company when anybody can write a program to solve any problem this box can handle in a few hours”
and:
2) “Oh come now, 100 megabyte hard drives? who could possibly fill that up over the life-cycle of this machine ? ”
yeah, and I had a chance to buy microsoft at 20, too.
short-sighted, that’s my problem.

The Fine Print

Some things to consider. I will not necessarily be responding to (or even reading) comments. I generally do not block comments unless they are off-topic, merely a soap-box for the individual, or clearly spam. I reserve the right to ban persistent offenders. Occasionally a comment will be held up for moderation because it triggers a filter; in particular comments with four or more links will be delayed. Do not resubmit the comment - it will be posted when I get an opportunity. Lastly, commenting get automatically shut down three weeks after the post first appears. Have fun!
