I made video games on that sucker.

I started on one of these......



I was soooo thankful when disk drives came along.

I'm only 30 and I used computers like that.

A couple 14 year olds banging back to back, and a 3 year old Biz could be right on the money. 

Don't doubt.

Oh, believe me, I knew some folks that decided to get a jump start on their family as well. I think a lot of us live in areas where there isn't much else for teenagers to do, after all.

I had everything except the monitor and modem.  I guess around 1985 or 1986?  Then I took it college my senior year 1990-91.

In fact I had it in a box in our basement and simply threw it away maybe ten years ago because my wife and I thought it was worthless.  Turns out they are collected now.  Doh!

I can verify that the West Virginia stereotypes are true. I've got family about an hour south of Morgantown. My cousin is 6 years younger than me but has been a grandmother for a few years now (my kids are 14,10,6). She had her first at like 15 or 16. And she's not rare. Almost every girl down there is a mother by 21. I guess that all that there is to do down there is toss cow shit and screw.

I finally got my own computer in 1986, I think.
It was a C128 color.
I started on the Tandy PCs when I was in 6th grade.

After high school, I was burnt out and never looked at another screen for 7-8 years.

Like how they promised he'd "get his"...one day.  But he never did?

Is it like that?

Reminds me of the urban legend that Steelers fans "travel well" and wear deodorant. 

All the evidence is to the contrary, but it's fun to speculate.

not winning with him either

Peyton Manning didn't win a single playoff game until his 6th season. 

Fatty face McRapeyPants was a passenger for all of his early playoff wins.

yeah that was the case in 2004

he might have stunk it up in super bowl 40, but they don't make it there without him, and they don't win in 08 without him

dalton is just looking to score another TD in a playoff game

Manning only lost three before that.  

Not five.

In consecutive seasons.

It was also the case in 2005, when Piggy averaged 23 attempts in the playoffs while riding fast Willie and that defense.

I'd think a Steelers fan would know these things. Since Ben has been asked to carry the load more (2011), he's a whopping 1-3 in the playoffs with 3 TDs.

Dalton has lost 4 games. Didn't you notice who the opposing QB was this past January?

So yeah wow, Dalton has lost 1 more playoff game than Manning did at the same point in his career. I guess Dalton is worse for making the playoffs an extra time.

No...just worse.
