Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95!

those 3 months in the mid 90s when "cd-rom" was it's own genre of software

I have this memory of gawking at a 7th guest demo in a compusa in New Orleans in the 90s when two lady cops walked up to me and were super impressed by the fmv stuff.

remember dead pixels? and how you couldn't return your lovely 4:3 lcd monitor with a 10hz refresh rate unless it had like 5 of them and they were all roughly in the same spot and it wasn't close to the edges? that owned, because it meant that crt was still the dominant tech and those had a degauss button

I always complained loudly about this and got a refund anyways
