savetz writes "The full text of the classic 1984 computer book Digital Deli, The Comprehensive, User-Lovable Menu of Computer Lore, Culture, Lifestyles and Fancy, is now on the Web. (Autstralian mirror) A wonderful look at technology culture in the golden age of the microcomputer. 20 other old computer books are at the site, too."

    Have you ever heard of the Spectrum ZX? (i think its ZX, maybe its Z80, i dunno) That was the first computer I ever had. My friend had a C64 and I can remember playing Gauntlet for hours. Now I have Gauntlet on my iPAQ. My how things have changed. *sigh*
