Yep, things aint what they used to be. our first radio was a little horror one had to poke around with a wire to get a station. My first computer was always going wrong and shoddy parts were the main problem.🌺

My first computer was back in the 80's in my office. It was an Apple and cost $4,000. In those days when school let out and we went on summer vacation we got to take the computers home. There wasn't internet at that time. My daughter has been exposed to computers since she was a year old. So crazy how it has evolved.

Re: Shift, control, alt return.
I'm trying.....it's hard for an old woman to remember things so she can try something new.

Those early computers were huge. My first desktop was purchased for me in 1998. I can still hear that annoying dial-up.

Good Evening
Taps, I learned how to type on a manual typewriter, and I remember how excited I was when electric typewriters came out. I do remember the first computer I used was not user-friendly, and I didn't like it. I love the laptop I have now. It makes my life easier. I remember when I was in Jr. high school, and we had to use white-out. It was not fun. I hope you have a good evening.
