Those days are not very old when we just started to set our fingers on computers with colorful displays.
You know what I mean? In our school, back in 80s, we had the 1st lot of computers coming where the start up used to be in DOS & yet so exciting.
Remember my 1st PC with 4.1GB HDD & a dashing Win'95. Those days, we used to send a prank to others with a new invention where the software would help to take your snap through the monitor. You keep staring at the monitor with great hope, while the progress bar moves slow with hick-ups due to those slow phone line modems. And you know what? After the long wait, there is sudden Buzz !!! Your snap is ready & you see a monkey face on the monitor.
The concept of webcam was alien. Don't you miss those days with your present hi-fi Gizmos & the integrated web-cam in your monitor?
Don't you remember that appealing Apple computer (BACK IN 90s) where the monitor (picture tube type) itself was CPU. Dashing ......... isn't it? Sorry pal !! Few days back, saw that same Apple model in a shop & it looks like pre-historic. Apple could have marketed that in Mongolia or may be Mozambique now.
Well, that's the way life moves on. But friend, don't forget your past.
