Aging

I have been going back and watching shows from the 1970's ans 80's. My thought was to see how well they agd. You know, something that old still having something to say or showing that it can still captue an audience. Of course, I watched almost no TV in the 70's and 80's. Just no time. What with the mining operation, working with youth and keeping father's computers operational! Honeywell ... wonder when the last time I even remembered those computers? Such simplistic operating systems - sort of the Commodore 64 of the business world! Except the Commodore is more powerful! I got my first Commodore back when their price fell below $1,000. Back the, I had a buy option on one of those GE/Honeywell 50's. But one never came up on the market. But, as the Commodores got cheaper, I started writing stuff for them. Up until 1992,the Commodores did all I could ever ask. But with the internet, suddenly the Commodores limited memories and processor speeds - left no hope for old technologies! It is why I never got involved in PC's - they evolve too quickly to hope to keep up. Of course, today nothing seems to be changing in the PC world. It has reached the point of customer apathy. To many changes too fast. Without customer buy-in nor input. No product acceptance, No future. Been the rule of computing systems since the 1960's, Still true today.
