When I graduated from high school in 1970, if someone had told me
there would be a device like the Bookport or a PC, for that matter, I
wouldn't have believed them. I am rather conservative in most ways,
but, as far as technology is concerned, I wouldn't ever want to go
back to the "good old days".

As someone who graduated high school in 1974 with nothing more technologically advanced than a manual typewriter and sometimes taped textbooks, I sure due envy the plethora of techie devices current students have access to. I would give anything to be debating whether I needed a laptop or a Pacmate. Slate and stylus anyone? Tried to resist posting this but just had to say how lucky you students are nowadays and I am happy for you.
