Heh, of course I remember. Another funny thing - there was a time computers had a "Turbo" button. And I always wondered who would possibly turn it off and slow down the computer willingly. Why even add a button? Our first real PC ran at 40 MHz with turbo on and... I'm not quite sure, maybe 18 MHz with the turbo off. It had the smashing 4 MB of RAM, later upgraded to the astronomical 8 MB (OMG, wow, hold on a second, dude!). Low memory led to some pretty funny situations, like individual levels in certain games having their own RAM requirement to play properly (just that one level). Video cards were just video cards - brand usually didn't matter (except when it was that one brand that had compatibility problems with 99% of the games out there). Video memory? No such thing. 3D acceleration? Science-fiction. DirectX? You mean VESA or UNIVBE, don't ya :P

I am actually pretty picky about typing comfort. I do a lot of writing, so it is crucial. I don't really need macro keys because the stuff I play usually doesn't require any... or requires just a few.
