Jeez, my first computer was a ZX81 with a whopping 1K of ram. I paid £69.95 and I had to by a 16K ram pack £49.95. I was excited then with its blocky characters, membrane keyboard. I was a techno freak. Look at the stuff these kids have today, its exactly like Bubbles says. Luck B*****Ds

Ah, I feel better now.
