One of my classmates prodced a copy of a 1993 PCworld today, containing an article of Robo's in which he is having a good '486 bashing session'! He was saying that there's no point in these damn fast computers with 8mb ram, and windows OS's... Nothing wrong with DOS, and you don't need more than a 286 rig to do spreadsheets...

Here he is these days GIVING AWAY palms which are faster than any 286, and well, uh, just a little smaller.

I bought 512MB ram a month or two ago, in 1993 I could have bought a house instead...

This PCworld also had a picture of Robo, black and white of course!

I wish I had a scanner, you guys'd love it! Robo'd probably sue me though...

:)

Robo is doing an article on Spreadsheets. When Lotus 1-2-3 4.0 for Windows was released.

He's sitting down next to a block mobile phone a Marge Simpson Toy and wearing a Scrooge McDuck Tie.

I have a scanner I may upload it to a site for all to see if they want to.

I hope I am not infringing any copyrights.
