I think you mean 18-19 years older.
The clothing styles and slang were pure early 90's. I'd guess 1990-1992.

I wouldn't mind getting an old rig together with 5 1/4 and 3 1/2 floppy drives and swapping games with people like we did in school. It would be so much fun! Trading rare games and stuff. I would kill somebody for some of the old Links expansion courses!
There's a combo 3 1/2+5 1/4" drive lying around that was previously sitting unconnected in my previous desktop PC, I think that still works too. (for some reason my last computer didn't seem to liek it though, I don't recall if it was a software or hardware problem) Maybe I could use that whenever I get around to building a retro win9x PC. (albeit I have few games on floppy, I have SQ1 from a grage sale over a decade ago that I never played, soe other games apparently lost -some generic shmup and MS Arcade pack 1) The rest are all on CD or DVD. (lots of DOS/9x games though which don't work on newer systems, or are too taxing to run in dosbox -like Wing Commander III/VI)Quote:

The "Crackers" (the programmers who broke the copy protection on disks) used to put colorful, animated loading screens on the beginnings of their wares just to brag about how they went about cracking the protection.
In fact, I'm pretty sure that every C64 user's software library was at least 90% pirated software.....
