“Only” 8MB. Oh, you sweet summer child. I remember when 8MB seemed like so much of an upgrade from my previous computer, which had 256k. And the one with 256k had a full hurricane tracker running on it.

    How many colors? Why that hurricane tracker could display a glorious 16 colors at a time! And an astounding 64000 pixels! And if I borrowed my friend's modem, we could dial up the local Sears to get the latest storm info at a blazing 300baud! Truly, it was an amazing machine.
