@NanoRaptor hey uh. this is really. well written?

this is as non creepy as i can word it sorry

Another cool discovery today. Completely by accident found a manual for some third-party Apple Lisa software.

I guess this makes sense, although Lisa was so unpopular I never ever even thought of non-Apple software for it.

But here we go, desktop publishing software for the poor Lisa!

It’s funny how at work I basically do software like this, 40 years later.

in the year 2000, if you were into retro computing, you were playing with the 18 year old Commodor 64 or the 23 year old Apple II, or maybe even the 26 year old Altair 8800

in the year 2025, if you play with 18 year old computers, you're twiddling a 2007 iMac

was there an equivalent change in user experience and capabilities from 2000 to 2025, as there was from 1975 to 2000?

i don't think so

i think our computers here in 2025 are almost identical to the ones we had in 2000, in terms of what its like to use them and what we can do

@beka_valentine and really i argue it's the output/media that changed really. you only can't use a 20 year old Mac for editing because 4k video will be slow on it. but if you were still editing SD? absolutely the same and doable. hell you can still write a book with word 97 on a 486 and you'll have a better experience than using office 365
