I was born in 90, and your post sent me down memory lane. When I was still in diapers my parents put a lien on their house so my mom could get a 486 machine, learn Lotus 1-2-3, and get a better job. One of my earliest memories is watching it boot up, seeing all the BIOS text that I couldn't read or understand scrolling across the screen, and wondering what that machine was thinking about to get itself all the way to Hard Drivin' or Wolf 3D. I asked my mom many years later why she didn't just get a C64, and she scoffed and asserted it was a cheap piece of junk made to play crappy games. The PC was a serious business machine for adults.
