Note that I didn't say a better time, just a simpler when there was a lot more variety. I'm not willing to trade my PC of today for an Osborne 1.
PCs ARE better today, and it's because of the innovations of pioneers like Osborne that they are. So yes, I do have a fondness for that. I also have a fondness for the Woz, Englebart, Metcalf, Kay and the other early giants of the industry. I'm sure you'd say the Difference Engine sucked too because it didn't run Word. Damn Babbage.
