I was so young, that i don't remember that much about it except these few things.It was in the far corner of the living room. The second thing was the way data used to be saved, and that was on a tape recorder.
I also remember it used cartridges. I remember that when we got our first modem, you had to place your phone on this weird looking device. OK, I guess I remember a lot more then I thought. The thing that stands out most is this:
10 FOR A=1 to 10
20 PRINT "Steve is awesome!!!"
30 NEXT A
RUN
And there was a few variations on it. Nowadays thing's are a little different which, if you're reading this you are well aware of. But the future, Ahhh the future for me is shaping up in my head to become very exciting.Literally.Imagine this,you're at the doctor's and you find out there's an hour long wait before he can see you.What do you do? You access some music, videos, or maybe that book you've been reading.You're not using your ipad or your laptop, you're accessing it from the memory chip thats in your body.
The video appears in your eyes with multiple ways to view it. There's 3d, Opaque of course, so you can see whats going on behind the movie, or even full cinema. The sound is generated in your ears and you're not disturbing anyone and your powering all of this from the energy your body creates.h to dream. I'm sure some people are terrified by this, but not me. I can't wait to post a blog from within my head, without having to type or open several applications. BRING IT ON!!!! Really, where else can technology take us? I'm sure it's being worked on somewhere as I type this.Here's an interesting article on things http://gizmodo.com/5813821/scientists-create-first-memory-expansion-for-brain
Hopefully things will be a little different then this |
The Atari was fantastic for it's day. I remember your Brother and I typing endless code in from magazines only to have it never ever work.
