I'm in a sentimental mood today. If you're 50 or older but still feel like 25, relate. It's 1979, and there is no internet, no cell phones and no personal computers anywhere. IBM formally stated that they were not interested in desktop comuters - that they considered "toys" - but if you were the geeky type and wanted a microcomputer, you could buy an Apple II at Team Electronics or a TRS-80 at Radio Shack. Or if you were really cool, you could run an Altair or IMSAI running CP/M. Pretty much all good electronics equipment was made in America. The π Speakers Constant Directivity Cornerhorn was just a prototype that nobody outside of Tulsa, Oklahoma ever heard of. MTV didn't exist yet, for that matter, cable TV was only available in a few select markets.

But we had Breakfast in America:
