The First Pentium

On this day in 1993, The Intel Corporation shipped the first Pentium chips (80586) with it's 60 MHz clock speed 64 bit bus, and 100+ MIPS (million instructions per second).

That consumate geek which was me at that point in time was enthralled with it all and nobody could bad mouth microsoft to me at that time without a major ration of retaliation.

It was a time back when I believed in a lot more than I do now. I had far fewer hard feelings for that monstrosity called trechery in the workplace.

I had far less experience with liars, thieves, cheats, crooks, and tyrants ... and the world was a much happier place.

Boy, have times changed.
