I've seen at least 20 more '90s hot technologies on the Quad.

Out of all those, the N64, the Playstation, and the cordless phone were the only things I was using by 1997. I did really want a minidisc player though.

Was the Nextel direct connect late 90's or early 2000's? I remember everyone in my circle had one and it was the shite.

I had a pool party for my 13th birthday. When I opened my present from my parents and it was an N64, all I wanted was for everyone to gtfo so I could play it all night.

I dated a girl that had this. She was all fired up about it.

She was the closest I ever came to walking out on a date and stiffing the girl with the check.

Only owned two of those and NEVER stood in line to buy them.

Here's a hint:. don't buy 1st generation electronics. Too expensive. Too few features. Too many bugs not worked out.
