I should do something with my Amiga A1000 instead of letting it just sit stored away. There probably are good hands for it somewhere out there, and it might even still work after decades of not being turned on.
(This thought occasioned by needing to move its boxes around. Yes, plural. I have the monitor too and various other things. I keep everything as a vague packrat.)
Today I was reminded that in the old days (the very old days), we happily used computers with what I would consider tiny displays today. Postage stamp sized displays, even if the CRT units themselves could be gigantic beasts.
@ptman This is true (and an interesting aspect of the whole thing), but we also tend to use phones much closer than we used old monitors. I think our monitor usage distance has stayed roughly constant while their physical size keeps growing, so the perceived size as part of the visual field also goes up.
