I've never seen anyone use the words 'fond memories' and 'tape drive' in the same sentence.

Isn't it funny how now we get impatient if a download takes more than a few seconds and filled with jealousy when we hear about people in Korea or Sweden who have connections so fast they can download entire DVD's in less time than it takes to microwave a frozen burrito?
