My memory must be going Because I lived through this And don't recall things going like this at all. While maybe saying I don't remember it like this at all is a little harsh it seemed to recall a little bit that was similar But a lot of it seems like it's been written by An A I. I'm pretty sure I went to those computer shows And weren't they called COMDEX? Also before halt and catch fire I don't even think I ever heard of Osborne. Another thing that seemed to have been messed is the Commodore 128 did I just imagine that computer? anyone else remembered it? Go 64? As far as Compaq Gateway HP and any other flavor of PC goes that was more because of open architecture: suddenly every startup in the world could produce hardware and software and compete with the big guys, this article claimed that the home computer market was dying off as of 19 96 but from my point of view things just really took off right around that time Has everyone wanted the internet So they could meet at Tom Hanks or Meg Ryan Winky Face. They do have to admit wanting a pulmonary 64 though, My buddy had one And all of the Bulletin boards at that time Had really cool games for it. I don't want to be too critical though It was a good read and they brought back some memories and actually I kind of feel like we're just entering very similar time As was back then. I can only imagine what this generation will come up with and hope there is just as much if not more innovation and enterprising companies like Commodore And Atari... even if I might not be around to see it!

PS sorry for all the typos I can't use my hands anymore and voice access is a little flaky [But I'm still very thankful there is such a thing!]
