I wrote my entire Senior research practicum on an Apple IIe and printed it out on a dot matrix printer- I felt like I was on the cutting edge!

Hm, I *did* have a camaro- how did you know that?

Seriously, my family did not have a remote control! We had a cable box on top of the TV and you had to get up and change the channels. Also, I am certain there were no computers in my school. Of course, I am from a teeny town out on Long Island, so maybe we were a bit behind the times.
