Nostalgia doesn't make me feel old, as often as it gives me the warm n fuzzies of comfort, I guess.. Wow... I also did all my papers on a typewriter or word processor box.. was a TI 99 like a Commodore 64?
Funny about remote controls too... the tv our folks got in 1960 (before I was born) actually *did* have a remote control on it... no batteries either.. it was piezo-electric I think, and there was a tube in the tv itself that sensed the nature of the clicks to change the channels, volume, and on/off. Nifty!
