Thanks Greg

A really interesting list, not to mention a nostalgia trip (I remember buying a TRS-80 as my first PC). I'm a bit surprised at the order of some of the items in the list and # 1 was a real surprise.

Yes Peter, these lists are always pretty arbitrary. Fun though.

Ah Zippo - I actually bought a Sony CDP-101 in 1983 for $1400 - wow and being a Mac user I will go with #1 :wink:

The PEZ dispenser. Like most gawky teenagers of the era I gave up PEZ and took up smoking. Much healthier.

What a terrific site!

As a road warrior, my life changed forever when I bought my Palm Pilot 1000. It enabled me to keep my diary, contact list, notebook and to-do list in a pocket-sized gadget that could go with me everywhere.

I believe that they will even make the coffee, now! :lol:
