"I'll just watch one" Said no-one ever.

[@billywws]

If you type in DEC.com, you will go to the HP website.

my grandpa was one of the head accountants for digital back then

[@ZPS_STG]

I always thought HDTV was invented in 1998... Appearantly I was 13 years off.

[@Corristo89]

Look at those old websites. Mostly text with a hyperlink here and there and a few pictures. More like opening a magazine rather than the internet. But who had internet in the 80's? A few techies, companies and mostly colleges with an IT department.

[@angelandres1130]

1985 that was a long time ago. the internet is older than me.

[@taz874]

im sure HD back then meant like 120p or 240p or less

[@Life0fTech]

I can almost guarantee that back then, "HD" meant "240P"

[@ShinnyCharSiewPau]

Yes, Because Cnet is all about pop culture and cool stuff, they don't usually post nerdy stuff

[@SweetWife84]

without Mr. Cooley, we know nothing. Cooley for President of CNet or Apple 2013

[@fsxaircanada01]

probably "HD" back then means 240p or less

[@techben505]

[@taz874]

no he never left he was just replaced by the guy who does it now and i think he now does the videos on cars and that on cnet

[@XError40404]

1985? :o I thought that before 1990, the internet was only used by governments and such :o

[@TechsHome]

It's pretty sad to see what people thought of registering first. I mean, they were all pretty sucky domain names...

[@royal__twistt12cringealert91]
