    Of course the really impressive thing here is the fact that Steve could type, on a typewriter, with almost no mistakes. Typewriters were evil.

    I saw what I thought was an Apple I at a garage sale, but I was not sure. The guy wanted $40 for it, he said, "It's an old Apple computer". Later I checked the interwebs, and sure enough, I passed on a $40 Apple I.

    I will never again feel bad about leaving out a closing parenthesis (like he did in answer number two now that I've seen even Steve Jobs sometimes forgets them.

    As a follow-up to the Giz trip to the Apple Store post this week, I would love to see the owner of this take the motherboard into the Genius Bar to get help hooking it all up. This is pretty outstanding, and never ending kudos to the two Steve's for such a fine starting point to the modern consumer technology extravaganza we live in today.

    This is all stupid Meg Whitman's fault. How stupid do you have to be to pay billions for a company that you don't get the rights to their key asset? That's like buying Coke without their secret formula or KFC without the Colonel's secret recipe.

    And now that idiot is running for office?

    "Unfortunately for Nintendo (and Sega, really), the partnership broke up and Sony went and created the PlayStation, which promptly conquered the world."

    Weren't Nintendo the one's who ended the partnership after some disagreements over money?

    That thing is weird looking, but theres something to old consoles that I feel good about. Could be the old electronics and design to them. Or that I feel closer to my childhood whenever I see them.

    Back then, game consoles had this mysterious aura to them. The games were fun and could be played for long periods of time, over and over. You could feel the hardwork and long hours put into them.

    How I miss the SEGA days. Jewel Master was one of the best games for it, besides the Sonic series of course. Road Rash was hilariously good at that age.

    The "SEGA CD" was very strange, albeit a pretty cool add-on. Never owned one, but would always marvel at it's beauty in those old school gaming magazines.

    I'm a bit upset that SEGA exited the console industry. I loved the SEGA Saturn, with games like Nights and Panzer Dragon. The SEGA Dreamcast was damn cool IMHO, and I absolutely loved Jet Grind Radio.

    Well I went off topic a bit, but couldn't help myself.

    How I despise nostalgia.
