I did not see bitamax, Sharp 9595. Sad, Nigeria was then every young Ghanian's dream country.

Excellent Job. You qualified to be awarded a Ph.D. This is a fantastic research work. Good old days. Not too many people had them. The TV was a luxury back then.

I wonder how many 3½-inch floppy disks will take the number of pictures, music and videos I have on my phone's tiny memory card.

Moral of the story: That you have a bigger head does not mean it houses more brain.

lol...

for a 1G memory card you will need about 1000+1.44=694 floppy diskettes!

Life is a journey.

I used to remember how the rich kids in church played around their father's 504 and 505 saloon cars.

Those who had a mercedes 200 were revered.

" I swore as a kid I will never be poor, today, I drive cars, own a house and got so much to achieve still young ".

Baba God, I thank you.

So my kids go enjoy ??

Those 3.5 and 5.25 diskettes were nightmarishly unreliable. I couldn't thank the gods enough the day I got my first flash drive.

I love the grandfather clocks and telephones. They look very majestic and exotic in houses where they are kept as evidence that the owners were once very well to do. Second point of note for me is that someday in the future, the gadgets we are using today will be referred to as 'Appliances from the Past'

The only permanent thing is change.
