And a pair of boots in your trunk? Actually, to be accurate, just one boot. C’mon, I have faith in you. ---

> [@Son\_of\_a\_Rich](#): > > Who remembers the paint program on the Amiga 1000s? Not Deluxe Paint- I believe that came later. Graphicraft (1985). Sold by Commodore, as there was just about no third-party software industry for Amiga yet. I had that and Textcraft, which was the earliest WSYWIG word processor for the Amiga and, as implied by the name, also sold directly by Commodore at the Amiga’s initial release. ---

I just ran across a copy of Smithsonian magazine November 2017 aimed at the Spanish Flu centennial, with the cover “The Coming Pandemic”. One of the articles quotes and has a picture of Dr. Fauci. The main concern expressed related to dealing with a pandemic pertained to downplaying the seriousness of the situation (which happened a lot in 1918). WHO remembers. ---

I remember when real estate listings would have cryptic numbers in them something like 104K5. Those were page and grid coordinates for the Thomas maps. ---

Twinax is just about gone now. Native AS400 (iSeries or IBM System i) no longer natively support it. Though you can still buy some devices to run your old twinax printers if you really need too. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/who-remembers/917822.md?page=9)
