I remember when AST was a thing - and U.S. West as well. AST had 128k Ram and a 360Kb 5.5" floppy drive. Never bought AST; I could build better systems for less money.
U.s. West is now Centurylink, and by most accounts, still crappy.
The last pay phone I saw was in a hospital two years ago. Used to be all around before cell phones. The very young only know about them from TV and movies.

ReplyDeleteI can't recall the last time I saw a pay phone, but then, I haven't been in jail. I can only imagine how Superman must feel.
ReplyDeleteHeh. I guess since Superman is a period character they would only have a problem with that if they set him in the present.
