FEED ME


 Our dad did this to us for Christmas in 20001997. We had a 75 MHz Compaq Pentium computer in the house from 1995. For the aforementioned Christmas in there was a gigantic box under the tree and we all wondered what it was.

When opened, it was revealed to be a brand new Compaq 233 MHz. We were all thrilled. But right after unveiling it he was very clear that he had bought it for himself, was never intended for us, and that he was giving us the 75 MHz machine as if it were some magnanimous gesture.

My siblings, not being huge computer people, were just disappointed or meh. I was livid.
