Thank you! This is interesting. I’d go to a Google/wikipedia/youtube rabbit hole now

Oh I’m completely unaware. I’ll go check them out.

Oh man yeah this is true

Is this like the premise for a movie?

I don’t recall apricot and olivetti. But the other I have vague memories especially the Macintosh one. Compaq doesn’t count as it is still existing.

So what’s the story man? Come on, some of us are invested already.

Apricot? So there were 2 pc makers with connection to fruit? Or Macintosh is not yet Apple then?

This is so wholesome! I wish more people do this

I now know why they are called sea dogs

That’s it! It must be astrophage!

Paying for cab expense sounds reasonable. Is there more to this story op?

I would support this

Damn OP. Real or not, I miss this kind of content which until now I haven’t seen in lemmy apart from the legendary poop and bean post, but is plenty on the other site.

You made my day OP. I wish a lot more people post with this level of quality.

I hope you get the right advice and do the right thing. Take care always.

Yeah this seems understated.

I do. But I got ridiculed and downvoted to hell. I hope those are u/spez bots cause if they are real people then that’s really unfortunate.

Please try and use non chromium based browser.

Please let us know if you find it. I’m interested as well.

Yes. This place is growing and feels like home
