Does my oldness trump yours? It's close either way. Here's to less work till retirement than these kid.

I think we're neck-and-neck for caducity, but you've got me beaten in breadth. I missed the whole NES -> SNES -> PS -> PS2 era of console gaming, as well as not owning a PC until Pentiums came out.

I assume the Spectrum was fairly common in certain parts of the world, but I'd never heard of it until now.
