Sending an email back in 1984

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/30/2018 08:35 AM | source: | 22 comment(s)

Oh gawd, how time has changed. How to send an email 1980's style. Electronic message writing down the phone line. First shown on Thames TV's computer programme 'Database' in 1984.

Connects PC to telephone. "Now, I am going to call my computer"

My god. Good thing we don't call our computer nowadays. My PC would just say, "F#CK OFF, I AM DONE WITH YOU AND YOUR RIDICULOUS OC".
