A blast from the past - April 1 1990

I pulled some of my old HO trains out for the kids to play with, and some of the cars were wrapped in old flyers. There was a page with tape answering machines and cassette players - but here is the best page. Enjoy!

WOW! I remember saving my $$ to buy a 10 pack box of 3.5" floppies....

Now the BIG decision, do I shell out the extra $80 for the 40MB drive?

Just think what somebody could do with the ability to build a current flash drive, and a time machine, might as well buy a lottery ticket while you're there to finance your project before the time paradox collapses in on itself.

Think those prices are high? I worked at an Apple dealer during the early 1990's.

In the early 90's, a 1MB DRAM stick was selling for $50.
