Hardware, Embedded Systems "Can you imagine a computer history museum that has to be packed up and put away each winter and then unpacked each summer, and which has three potbellied pigs as its mascot? I can, because I've just visited the DigiBarn, a wonderful trip down silicon memory lane that's nestled into a 19th-century farmhouse deep in the Santa Cruz mountains, about 90 minutes south of San Francisco."

Miss the computing of the 80s

I fell in love with computers back in the 80s as a child/early teen.

I still have a c64, 1541 drive and a clone RGB monitor hooked up in the other room.

There was something about computers back then that is missing these days. I can't put my finger on it. Maybe I was young and it all seemed so new and exciting.
