Hi, this is Bill Sikkens host of user
friendly 2.0
2
:
Saturdays here on The Answer
with this week's Tech Wednesday.
3
:
As we look back at technology,
there's a lot of different devices
4
:
over the years that have been successful
and some not so much.
5
:
And this week
we're going to be talking about the
6
:
some not so much part,
specifically video game consoles
7
:
and old computers that didn't quite
make it into the mainstream
8
:
or did and didn't last very long,
or had some other kind of an issue
9
:
that made them become a relic of the past.
10
:
We're going to be looking at some systems
that started out in the early 80s,
11
:
as well as some newer things, and talk
about what happened to their companies,
12
:
what happened to their equipment,
13
:
and how some of this stuff
today can be extremely valuable.
14
:
If you have one of these devices
sitting in your attic or garage somewhere,
15
:
it might be worth getting it out
and looking at putting it on a site like
16
:
eBay, because these things can go
for thousands of dollars.
