I bet no one here remembers when there wasn't internet and a computer used floppies only and the screen would gradually fade out when you turned the computer off. Also, the days of basically programming with the F keys (I had to look to see if they are still on the keyboard, lol).

My first "computer" that I used was a Univac DCT 9000 back in the late 70's. Personal computers were not yet mainstream for the general public, although some businesses were beginning to adopt early versions. A few short years later, the military gave Zenith a contract for the first PCs to hit the military in a big way. The earliest of those models were dual floppy drive systems where one disk contained the OS (MS DOS), and the second was your program/data storage.

Oh... I still remember my old ARPANET login, too.
