Holy crap! You must be, like 40 or something! (In a related note, I found a hard drive of my dad's this morning in the garage. From 1985. It was horrifying.)

He's probably more like 50, unless he worked for a company that was really behind the times. Or the government. Surprisingly, large organizations like the government and the really big businesses are sometimes more likely to be behind on current technology than smaller groups, simply because their size means that it takes a considerable investment to upgrade.

Damn kids - no sense of history!
I still have the VT100 and the 800 baud modem I used to write my thesis with on the mainframe...
Border Reiver:
I wrote my thesis on a electronic typewriter. And for your information that computer program was written in highschool.

Nice to see Faye growing a bit in this one though.
I'm just glad that Tai doesn't use Brute 33

It was probably left behind in the library, and she keeps it in the "Lost & Found" drawer of her desk.
Along with several condoms and maxi pads (unused) (they fell out of girl's bags when rummaging for other stuff), several pair of glasses, a dozen notebooks and about 30 umbrellas.
The employees use the umbrellas more than anything else

You got that right. I mean, no bonfires, my employer got angry when I told her she was a "silly clunk," and no groups walking around naked and singing in the streets—not one! Darn kids—no sense of tradition whatsoever. Some fool wearing his freedman's cap actually tried to tell me it had something to do with 'Santa.' Like there's any gens named that.
SleeperCylon:
I would certainly hope Marten isn't capable of the dickishness to begrudge somebody for not revealing her father's suicide to him fast enough.
