    Hey! I have one for sale. It's making an excellent book end currently in the closet. I'll even throw in the deal whatever cd's are still in it.

    I net those 2000 computers are worth less than the camcorders now. The cell phone plans for a dollar a day seem pretty awesome, though.

    I've been thinking of upgrading my RAM. I wonder if I should stick with 4 MB or spring for the 8 MB deal.

    Free installation on your 28.8 modem! Sweeeeet!

    I remember when I upgraded to 28.8. It seemed soooo fast! I didn't have to wait over a minute for a picture to fully download on my screen. Awesome.

    Moving on up from the 14.4 modem to the 56k modem was off the chain!

    ha ha ha ha... I love looking at ads from the past... You want a real look at the past, try to find old magazines and look at the ads. Cell phone ads from late 90's or early 00's are the best. Also look up old commercials on youtube, there are some good mcdonalds ads/ old toys that are funny and very nostalgic.


    I WAS THERE!!!!!!

    I wonder what PNY would do if you pushed them on their RAM lifetime warranty right now.

    Links LS was a badass golf game on the computer. I think our first home computer was comparable to the one they were selling for 2399. 33.6 modem was the **** back then.
    Yeah TOAST!!!

    I have that NCAA Football '97 for the Sega Genesis, that's on the last page, around here somewhere. I hope I didn't pay that much for it!
    There can be only one.

    Wow and I thought today's electronics were expensive.
    1996 25" console TV on sale for $299
    2011 46" LCD 1080P HDTV on sale for $298

    I think I will chose to save a buck and get a better TV
