It's nice that so many programs and libraries have adopted NO_COLOR in the past four years, but if programs would just stop printing random colors to the terminal without asking, this list wouldn't have to be so long.

Using the PowerBook 180's internal 14.4kbps modem to dial into my BBS server 6 feet away, to courier files via XModem

My laptop of choice in 2001 was the Sony VAIO PCG-Z505 (with WaveLAN 802.11b PCMCIA card)

I made my first OpenBSD commit 20 years ago today
