20 years ago?

I was a junior in high school working for my local Amiga dealer.. What a time.. The machine was like nothing on earth, they were actually up there mixing video and computer graphics and it wasn't a $20,000 machine and they were actually making art.. The Great Andy Warhol and Blondie, had just shown us a revolution. Wow this looks like the Mac but it has color and extra processors.. I can't believe this that I am actually allowed to even see this. Gosh could I actually own one of these? I could afford $1295.. It's so stylish, there will be so much productivity software, the machine is so ahead.. Apple and IBM aren't gonna compete.. Wow Lotus 1-2-3 is coming out.. Okay Textcraft looks cool but where are the fonts and graphics insert.. Musicraft wow.. It sounds like a real piano.. Oh it just crashed, no wait it's a demo "Amiga Fireworks MODE"...

Wow, what can happen in 20 years...
