Nostalgia

Almost every new technological gadget looks incredibly stylish and beautiful. When some 30 years ago I saw a TI calculator the first time in my life I thought its design was superb. Then years later one looks at the outdated machines with disgust – ugly things! But again when one becomes older and starts believing that in the past the sky was bluer and grass was greener, the charm is back again. Here’s a great nostalgia site for Soviet and Eastern Europeans PCs and calculators. I also had a Soviet-made Apple 2 compatible and thought I was the luckiest guy on earth.
