Oh, and those fancy gaming computers? PUH-LEEZE! We had to do our gaming on Pentium 4 computers with 128MB graphics cards. Talk about primitive! Yeah, you heard right, those were SINGLE-CORE processors! And they weren't cheap, either! If you wanted a decent computer, you had to pay $500! That was a lot of money back then.

Ahhh, the memories of Oregon Trail from back in the day. "POOPHEAD has died of dysentry."

I read "When I was a kid" and "You guys wouldn't have lasted five minutes back in 1980 or any time before!" but based on the responses everything in between must have been a good story.
I'm going to go play some Call of Duty MW2.
