You know what's crazy. The average smartphone is more powerful than all those systems combined.

That ain't much of a stretch. An old 486DX2-66 or 100 can run emulators for all of those old systems. I had emulators for all of those back in '97 when I was running a Compaq Prolinea 4/66 desktop.

damn ...you said 486

i miss that term.
 
not sure yall remember this.....but after the tapedeck storage was harddrives...i thought i had space for days with my 20 mb drive.

yes i said 20mb an that was top of the line.

Felt like a damn mechanic. Good times.
