I also remember when my schools had Apple computers which used floppy discs & CD-ROMs.

I remember the floppy disk well.

I remember when we got our first computer. I didn't see much point in it seeing as we already had a couple of typewriters.

I remember when we got our first video. I was 9 and it was fairly new here. It felt like such a revolution to be able to play movies independently of our 2 TV channels.

I remember when KFC restaurants got sued for refusing to honour coupons for a free promotional chicken meal which was endorsed by Oprah Winfrey.

I remember when a new episode of the Cosby show was a weekly highlight each Saturday evening.

For most of my life, we had box TV. I remember well the time before it came with a remote control.

I remember the time when all you had to do to play a game was pop it in the right console and hit the power button

I remember when you could only listen to cassette tapes in the car, not CDs. I remember when portable CD players were connected to a car radio through a wired cassette tape.

eight year olds can remember the same thing, because people still drive old cars.
