Last one for today. Fun stuff. This was cutting edge in 1997. Consider back then, the norm was dial up internet, and lots of Americans still didn't have that. Nor did they have a home PC, which could cost thousands. A hard drive that was 2 gigs was considered top of the line. If you wanted a cell phone, it was charged per minute of usage and you had to basically sign a two year contract to get one. And it probably had a battery the size of your hand. One dollar Whoppers was not unusual to find at a Burger King. There was no social media, no Tinder, no speed of information, lots of people were still renting movies at a local store through VHS. And this was pre 9/11 as well.

The world was not better, not worse, just different. But maybe more simple. Merry Xmas guys.
