I remember when the Turbo button unpressed disabled the Cache and made the computer go slower.

I remember learning that there goes two nibbles on one byte, but altough I programmed alot of assembler I never had any use of that knowledge.

I remember my second computer , the Amstrad CPC-464 (Aka Schneider) and it had colours.

I remember playing Civ-1 a month ago becourse it still beats civ-3.

I remember being an unsecure teenager, never sure of anything.

I remember that things was worse before and now they are great.

I remember that some time ago I hadn't heard of SE4.

I remember when companies didn't have any enviromental ethics, now they atleast say they have.

I remember when equality between sexes and feminism was something extreme, now it's political correct.

I remember that it sucks when the reserve parachute doesnt work, and when it finally opens and you land you realize you packed it wrong yourself.

I remember staying up at nights becourse the kids wouldn't sleep, I remember things are much better nowadays

I remember when fighting video games were 2-D and there were only 3 possible moves: a button to jump, a button to kick, and a button to punch. (Remember Kung-Fu Master?) It took 30 seconds to learn how to play.
The games today are so complicated! Each character that you can play has 50 different special moves that require a long sequence of direction/button combinations that you need to memorize, and it takes a month to learn.
