Zeev's Turnips Patch-No Politics (ZEEV)

[Paul A]

I saw those neon colors.. thats amazing.. Your right- I was speaking with a fella who was buying a graphic card from me and thats when I was 'shown the light!'.. and hes like 'this is old stuff man- get with it!!!'

Heck- I still remember the days when I ran a bulletin board off of my atari 400 with the membrane keyboard and a 300bps modem that wouldnt auto-answer, so I had to build a little thingy with a relay and all.. I used to have over 100 people a day calling my house to log on and exchange software etc etc..

Letsee- here were my two biggest failures back then and probably the reason Im here typing this instead of being filthy rich and hanging out in the islands:

'What the hell is a mouse? No way people will take away the hands on approach of using a keyboad'

and of course:

upgrade to 1200bps?? For file transfers yes, but not for our chat board! people cant keep up with those speeds.. 300bps will be around for years...

For an example of someone who HAD the intelligence to look forward- just see bob and matt : )
