When I was little their were no electronics in my life. We could cook and drive, but my mother didn't believe in electronics in the house.
-
Very rarely were we allowed to watch TV. Only 'Laurence Welk' with my grandparents and 'Wild Kingdom' for the kids. The TV cabinet was 6.5 feet long and also housed a record player. It's still in my mom's house today.
-
I remember when I was given my own little record player in a case. I also was given a set of records with music such as the Disney songs. I know all the words to 'It's a Small World" and still sing it every time I go through the ride
-
My mother bought an Atari for Christmas. It only played a couple games. I hated it. I do remember PONG and eventually Space Invaders. Still don't like video games.
-
Phones have changed a lot. I remember corded phones until I was in my 20's. Sitting on the floor talking all night - and no one else could call in.
-
PacMan...I remember when you have to go to arcades and play at a PacMan table.
-
Bulky, not much to watch, but we had one. Somehow I think tech started to invade my home
-
I don't think my mom liked to cook. My grandmother would bring over meals and we now had a way to heat them up in that big bulky machine.
-
I remember my first Walkman. Played that 'Grease' song track all the time.
-
Given a typewriter to go to college so I could write papers. Included, correction tape and ink and paper. Found out the lab at BYU had basic computers and printers, but didn't know how to use them.
-
I actually won this at Circuit City and used it to work at home.
-
No cords - small fee - use for emergency. I got my first flip phone to use for emergencies since I was a single mom. Only made calls.
-
Got one for my daughter first....then me.
-
I now use my phone not just for emergency. It's my phone book, reminders, grocery list, calendar, digital book, call and texting, and yes occasionally games.
-
Got my first one at work and now use it everyday.
-
I'd never used one and didn't own one, but my job started to require me to use an IPad for assessments. Now I use it daily
-
So I was a little behind the times and only recently got a 'smart tv'. I had had a couple flat digital screens, but this was another step up. Even got one for my 75 year old mother.
