System 7, fun times.
I remember:
* tapping on a folder icon and then a bunch of rumbling in the cage from hard drives back then.
* the excitement with controlling a virtual world using a graphical user interface.
Still exciting.

We were still at the stage of "all computers are miraculous" and along came the mac with graphics/UI consistency and quality which just seemed impossible. I still find computing amazing, but those early days of wonder and awe were great.
