I remember when home computers didn't have hard drives, you used a cassette player to load the operating system into the FlashRAM - the good old Timex/Sinclair 8000.

"What a fun saturday night. "
I went to a country line-dancing club. Surprisingly, it was a lot of fun.

Is it a bad sign that I remember my family having a Tandy? I only ask because I was 6-ish when we had it.
I inherited the thing when we got a sweet tricked out Pentium 1, and by Oden's raven, I ran that machine into the ground. One embarassing episode was where I formatted the HD when I was sure I was formatting a floppy (remember floppies?). Then, one day, it booted with funny characters. I'm pretty sure it wasn't a virus, because I'm pretty sure there were no viruses for DOS 3.

20 MHz processor? Impossible. Obviously you forged this somehow, because everyone knows that a processor speed that fast would cause the computer to overheat and then go back in time.
