I remember using the library and going through the big fat red periodical index books to find sources for my research papers. I remember using the typewriter to type up reports. The fancy typewriters let you erase the last few letters with auto-whiteout if you made a mistake. I remember using an 8-digit calculator with just the digits 0-9, a decimal, and the four basic math functions. Oh, and the on-off button, too. The computers were Apple II’s and they were in the lab; they weren’t wirelessly-connected laptops that I owned and kept with me. If you had to make a phone call, you used the phone in the staff room with permission.

Does this sound strange to you guys? Am I old?
