Ill never forget the first computer that me and my husband bought together. (I bought a new one from Texas Instruments in 1983,24 years ago . I worked at T.I. then as a 40x Inspector. I built microprocessors and inspected them as well. Wish I still had that one its almost an antique.)
My husband had one when we met in 1989.
But this would be the first one we bought together.
We were living in Japan and we heard they were cheap in Singapore. So we hopped a plane and flew to Singapore (a 6 hour flight from Tokyo)
and went to a special Mall that was 6 stories tall.
Each floor of this mall sold the computer parts. I didn't realize we had to BUILD IT OURSELVES! (this was in 1992). So we bought the memory, mother board, keyboard, case, monitor, everything all for the low low price of around $3,500.00!
(Remember when Memory used to be really expensive? This computer we built was a 386! Remember 286's? and 486's?
This was a brand new spanking 386. Slow as a turtle. haha)
We got it all home and my husband built it, and what did we use it for? To play video games mostly. And as a word processor. (and to track our bills and bank account info)
But then we got E-mail and Internet.
In 1993 my sister told me to get e-mail because she had it at her job and so did my mother. Since we lived in Japan, it was expensive to call the States, so we started e-mailing.
I cant believe this was in 93. I also shopped online at SPIEGEL. They were one on the first stores to be online.
Shopping in Japan for clothes with my figure wasn't easy. So it was great. Anyway, I digress...
My mother and sister, both worked at Texas Instruments in Dallas and they had e-mail because they talked to the Phillipines and Singapore a lot, since there are T.I's there.
So we signed up for internet, and it was dial up and we had to type in a super long password to get in.
But it was great getting letters from my family! Wow, have things changed in 14 years...
By the way, these new iMacs ship from Apple in only 3 days. And you dont even have to fly over to Singapore!
