When I was young, older people thought the monitor was the computer and had no idea there was a chassi under the desk connected to it. :)

Have you ever seen the original Mac?

[-] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 days ago

Yes, but was never a mac dude.

When I was young people thought the keyboard was the computer. And they were right.

Or commodore 64. Amiga 500. Schneider 6128. ZX spectrum. Just to name a few from my time.

Actually yeah, I didnt think of that but commodore 64 was my first computer. Its actually incredible the things it could do without any cooling or fan, and tiny graphics chip...
