    Are they? Are they really? I miss the days when you had to do stuff for yourself and when 99.99% of the population still thought computers were the Dark Arts.

                            I was using... http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/Uploads/2587207/DSCN1014.JPG[^] Oh, wait, no. That's now:

                            (And I was fudging the date a bit. Both items are dated 1986.)

                              I was using this [^]...and then upgraded to this [^]...although it was Fortran 4, not Basic (as seen on the card). British Aerospace wasn't on the cutting edge of technology back then - but we still managed to get the Tornado to fly!

                              - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
