[TheForge] Excessive scaling?

[Washington, Aubrey O.]

I was a relative late-comer to the high-tech world.  I didn't get my first hand held calculator until I was working on my dissertation in grad school. My first computer was an Apple IIc which I didn't get until several years out of grad school.  I still keep a slide rule in my desk drawer, and even use it on occasion.  I have a little 6" slide rule in the truck for figuring gas mileage.

A friend of mine still has his original Big Blue-8086.

Okay, NOW I feel old. <sigh>
