Anybody have one with more patches than this?
yeah, like you say...if it could only talk! thanks for sharing, brings back a lot of bad memories. hm, i don't think that an overall majority of people know and/or care what it was like having nothing back when...and making that do ! sadly, its a throw away world nowadays ...for most people.
