Pretty interesting thread you two. The history of computers is fascinating.

The thing with my own interest is this: I owned a C64 when I was a kid. I had a friend with a Spectrum. A friend of my dad (a grown up) had a C128. That's it. I can't feel nostalgic about computers I never saw as a kid. For example, I never knew anyone who owned an Amiga, so -- fabulous as that machine is reported to have been -- it means nothing to me.

... Though the relatively recent post here on HN about someone who picked up an Apple II from the trash and repaired it did get my some weird nostalgic vibes. Is there a word for nostalgia of something you never experienced? ;)
