Remember the 1980s? Oversized shoulder pads, Metal Mickey and... sticky keyboards?

Hey, Remember The Y2K?

1999 was an interesting year. I remember wanting to have a Sega Dreamcast, playing Playstation games, Windows 98 SE being a thing and Internet being so slow downloading a half hour video could take a whole day and half of another.

And COBOL programers making it like bandits. Everyone using INTERNET EXPLORER and... a guy I knew making a bundle selling typewriters in case computers no longer worked in the year 2000.
