The very first computer I owned had 2 Kb (not Mb) of RAM: you upgraded it by plugging in a 16 Kb module. If you wanted a program, you typed it in, line by line and if you wanted to save it, you backed it up to a cassette tape.

Ah, those were the days !!!

...not to mention going over 8 pages of closely written code to see which character you'd typed in wrongly....

At least for this part, these are still those days. Though better tools for finding the stupidest of typos exist.

So, when you refurb a room in your basement as an exercise room, guess what! You now have no valid excuse not to exercise.

Who knew.
