I recall cancelling AOL way back in the early 2000's ... when the person asked what my user name was and I stated wamnet, they said, "... no, there will be numbers after that..."
"Uh... no," I replied, "... that's whole user name." So they look it up. "Wow... you're old... that goes back to 1990"
And here's link that's on that page - the Comdex in 1983 (when I was designing CGA interfaces) where they show Winblows and old Apple II:
I recall seeing that vid at Opus One when we were doing all those installs for various places like Mobay, Westinghouse, Alcoa, and CMU's new ITC center. Designing stuff for getting those old projectors (Novabeam, Inflight/VStar, Electrohome) to do the various resolutions (old Herc, old terminals, and eventually the CGA which was basically NTSC) was fun. Convergence was a nightmare...
Oh - and note the Bell and Howell booth. Wow - back then they were huge. Now they sell cheap lawn lights and clips for attaching your cellphone to your car's AC vents. So sad...
