I think people worked/played more with the
computer more back then.
Meaning wrote utilities, improved stuff, changed something, and were
proud if it.
Really??? Have you browsed the Internet lately and seen the amount of
software & mods out there, and the just wild and crazy things that people
are doing with their PCs? Seems to me there are a heck of a lot *more*
people writing utilities, improving stuff etc. today, and far more complex
and sophisticated stuff at that (especially since there's so much more
room for improvement ;-).
I really don't think so. Go on this modding groups, and check, how much
background info they really have. They just take a motherboard, put a
water cooler on it and wait until it falls apart by over clocking it.
I was talking about people crawling into their computers with an
soldering iron without hurting themselfes ;-)
