It's just nice to read this and remember the old days.
But where are the 3d artists? Does anyone know Vivid? It was a DOS based 3d modelling software with his own language. Radius=25, r=210, g=044 b=112 x,y,z bla bla bla and so on... RENDER! Great! A sphere in the endless black...

How about Corel draw 1.1 and pagemaker.
They were about the same time as that hit funky house tune...where love lives, by Alison Limerick.

Oh man...I remember all of those. I also started on my High School newspaper, and we used 2 mac classics and pagemaker to layout the thing, but we had to save it all to floppies and then have it output and then paste THOSE up on a page. After graduation I worked for a printer pasting up things, running the stat cam and picking up photo type set pieces for menus, ad etc. When I got to college, I used to do my own layouts with a Letraset book and a photo copier, taking the typefaces that I wanted, blowing them up giant, re-inking them so they weren't all nasty, and the cutting and pasting them together, then photocoping THAT, and then use that piece in a layout.
Thankfully I then went to a University that had more than Apple Ii si computers, we had the ever powerful Apple PowerMac 7100/60 AV's !!!!
Netscape 1.0. What fun! it had tables, and that was it! no frames, no background images. And using PINE and telnet for email.
Someone stole my syquest disc in college. I was so pissed, now I laugh. What are they doing with that 64 meg beast these days?
I just researched how much I spent for my Apple PowerMac 9600/300 and I nearly fell over when I realized that it was about $4600!!!
One day we are going to laugh that we only had 20 gig ipods. That will be a scary day.
