And Before That -
Yesterday I did a review on Blogger’s New Interface -
Which I don't appreciate being crammed down my throat -
And just in case you think that I am an old fuddy-duddy -
Who does not accept change well -
You're right - I AM!!
I have teenage grandchildren -
So - yeah - I am older than most of you -
Especially you guys with toddlers - ;))
And -
YES - I don’t accept change as well as I used to -
BUT -
You have to realize -
That I have been dealing with computer changes -
Since before most of you were born -
For example -
Right now we have WORD 2010 -
And before that was WORD 2007 -
And before that was WORD 2000 -
And before that was WordPerfect 6.0 -
And before that was WordPerfect 5.1 -
And before that was WordPerfect 5.0 -
And before that was WordPerfect 4.2 -
And before that was WordPerfect 2.20 -
And before that was WordPerfect 1.0 -
Along with WordStar - 7.0 Revision D -
And before that was WordStar 7.0 -
And before that was WordStar 6.0 -
And before that was WordStar 5.5 -
And before that was WordStar 4.0 -
And before that was WordStar 3.0 -
And before that was WordStar 2.26 -
And before that was VolksWriter -
And before that was EasyWriter -
And before that was WANG -
And then there are Laptops -
Desktops - with hard drives -
Desktops - with 3-1/2” floppies -
Desktops - with 5-1/4” floppies -
Winchester drives - with 8” floppies -
And before that -
Pencils and paper -
Typewriters and adding machines - ;))
So - yeah - I have gone through some computer changes -
Some - for no apparent reason -
And I really DON’T mind -
If it makes things better -
BUT -
I'm just plain getting TIRED -
Of having to spend my time -
RELEARNING the same old stuff -
AGAIN -
And AGAIN -
And AGAIN -
Because -
Someone somewhere decided to CHANGE it -
AGAIN -
And AGAIN -
And AGAIN -
I just want to SEW!! ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

I agree, and I have toddlers!
ummm... what can I say? :-)
I have g-kids 2 to 21 and sometimes I have to ask the 9 year old to figure things out for me....I hate to think their brains are more 'techi' but alas, I believe they are....
Katie M. - I don't think that their brains are more "techy" - I think that they just don't know any OTHER way - but alas - I DO - ;))
You forgot cassette tapes for program storage. (That was my first computer - well, my dad's.) :)
But I hear you. Every time they upgrade something at work it's a struggle to figure out where all the buttons went...
Katie - I also forgot IBM punchcards - and the VERY first computer I ever worked on - punched tape on a HUGE roll that we sent to the bank to PROCESS. The bank's computer took up a WHOLE ROOM - you know - like in the old movies - ;))
