$200 to $300 for the consoles alone and old PCs were like $2000+ in the 80s

but other living expenses were much lower so it evened out and working and middle class households could still afford them

And those PC's might give you 2-3 year before needing an upgrade to run new games and software. I pity my parents. Dropping $2k on a tandy sensation, then hundreds more in upgrades 2 years later, then a new comp for 2k 2 years after that. I would have told myself and my siblings to go fuck myself with that bs. Play with an abacus like the orientals.

We’ll always have Autoadmit, if all else fails.

(Nearly every poaster in history has self-identified as white and I for one choose to believe them.)

People didn’t have cell phones or the plans associated with them.

NAFTA hadn’t hit yet and the working class was not yet decimated iirc

I remember seeing my first computer at a friend's house who was the son of a rich doctor, it was walled off in a special cubby of the master bedroom but his dad let us play chess on it for like 10 minutes then kicked us the fuck out
