Reply to Sean,
We had a couple of Wang Word Processors (I think) in our school that
used those, but I never got to touch one. Only the PETs that used
an external audio cassette drive for data storage. Probably took a
full 60 seconds to load a program from one of those things... not
too shabby for a whole 4k.
60 seconds for a program load vs 10-30 now for VS or Eclipse
You're joking, right?
They've got worse, by orders of magnitude. A 5 second boot with the
Kaypro, versus (don't even know how long) for Vista on an average
computer.
