Hahah.. yeah, Impossible Mission and Dino Eggs.. those were the games! How many times did I go to bed and wake up and find Randy and Roger still playing the next morning?! Personally, I liked Impossible Mission II much better!
I do remember your old Lisa, and of course the Mac 128 and how good she was at pool, was it not? You sure brightened up her days with that machine!
The WFW conversion was a BIG thing at work, I'll probably never forget that. I think I still have the dos add-on floppy disk somewhere -- or maybe I threw it out a couple months ago when I ran across it.
I remember my first brush with the Internet and the WWW -- probably on that XT turbo clone you built... taking forever and forever to load a page, and it was just a page of more links, and I wondered why on earth would I want to wait around that long for just more things to click on and wait for?
I remember the daisy wheel printer we had at work.. and the 9 pin dot matrix printers we had, of course. Printouts of general ledgers on greenbar paper....
