A Holding Most Dear –
A computer. A link to the world. I love links. Especially hot links. Connecting the dots with links. A dialogue with like minded individuals. Questions and answers. Let’s talk.
a personal belonging
a great invention
A Database –
A place to store information. The most important invention in my lifetime. Some would say it is the computer which is necessary to do a database. We can argue about that. It was the database that made the computer important. Knowledge shall increase.
a home computer
A TI99 –
A keyboard that hooked up to your TV. I told my wife to get it when the price came down to $100. A technician at work showed me how to save a program with my tape recorder. I had to learn BASIC programming and would take my work home until someone told me how to use this new computer on my desk at work. “Just type BASIC”. It was love at first sight.
