Name your PC day...
I named my first computer sam after sam Beckett on quantum leap. That's how old I am. Sam was a pre-ibm computer that ran it's operating system off of one of the really old actually floppy floppy disks. Without its floppy disk it was a large paper weight. I had an extra floppy drive so I could save my files from word star the word processing program it came with.

It took two files and two floppies to save my wip of the time at around 23000 words. I was getting close to needing a third floppy and a third file when I gave up on that story.

Now my flash drive holds everything I have written in35 years plus the pictures from my family albums going back four generations.

Technology, am I right?
