Before the Computer

Post by sitemama on Sun Apr 04, 2010 11:30 pm

Memory was something you lost with age
An application was for employment
A program was a TV show
A cursor used profanity

A keyboard was a piano
A web was a spider's home
A virus was the flu
A CD was a bank account

A hard drive was a long trip on the road
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived

And if you had a 3.5 inch floppy. . . . . . .

You just hoped nobody ever found out!?!

Those are good, mama! So true. I have often wondered what it would be like for my grandmother, a retired school teacher who passed away in 1977, to return for just one day. I think it would seem like a foreign country!
