Another big mistake that Microsoft made with IE (or Internet Exploder) was not being compliant with web standards. This made developing websites a real headache for webmasters. You'd have pages with scripts that ran fine on every other browser but didn't in Exploder, so you'd have to either use browser detection to reload to an IE-friendlier version (which was extra work), post a message that the site runs best on X browsers (remember those days?), or just fugehtaboutit.

I remember when Congress held the meeting and had no clue what they were doing with Windows 95. They didn't understand that Internet Explorer was included but you could easily install any other browser. I often had to use several browsers because of the type of coding that each site had. Not 1 browser could handle all the sites. It was a lot of work to have all the plug-ins needed I still own a fax machine. And they still sell inkjet multifunction machines that print fax and copy. I bought a laser multifunction machine. It was a lot more than the 30 dollar inkjet multifunction machines Pagers are still around. The 900 MHz versions are still in use almost everywhere. Hospitals use them a lot and some hospitals even have their own 900 MHz paging frequency. There used to be a lot of 150 to 160 MHz voice pagers. I used to own them back in the 80s and 90s I don't know if any are still in use. Airpage , the beeper people, had a huge client base for voice pagers back in the 90s in New England Many companies still use voice pagers on their own frequency. And almost every fire department in America has a VHF or UHF pager frequency for EMS and fire departments. I used to be in the fire department and I listen to the calls in my district with my own Motorola pager and base amplifier that I purchased and programmed about 20 years ago. I am going to see 8f VHF commercial voice pager companies still exist. I know you can get a digital 900 MHz pager but it would be amazing if they still have voice pagers you can buy and have a commercial service for. The ones I had you could pay for a private phone number, a whole exchange was dedicated to the company and they sold individual numbers, so someone could call the number assigned to you and get your personal message and it would record and broadcast the message to you 3 times. The pager was very loud. The beep could be heard anywhere in the house. The less expensive service had the main number of the pager company and it would prompt you for the 6 digit ID of the person you were trying to page and then record your message and page the person with your message. They actually had 2 different frequencies, one for the less personal accounts and one for the people who bought the private numbers. They didn't keep track of the number of calls you received. Back then it was a business tool. Cell phones back then were a business tool as well. Typically the bill was 400 dollars a month at a time minimum wage was 3 dollars In today's standard the bill was about 1000 dollars a month for cell service that you used a couple times a day. And you couldn't roam the way you do now. Many companies were small local cell companies with 1 tower. I remember before cell phones we had low band 30 MHz 2way radios that we could active the phone link by pressing the star key on the DTMF pad and we got a dial tone and pressed the number on the dtmf pad including the 1. Everyone else on the frequency heard the conversation, at least the base part of the conversation. We pressed the pound key to end the call and disconnect the phone link. That was in the 70s. It was the predecessor to the initial cell phone companies that were actually base stations that transmitted a single UHF frequency. The original Motorola cell phones were actually two way radios and there were three modules the receiver the transmitter and the control unit. We had to separate antennas on the trunk one for the receiver and one for the transmitter The original cell phone units were 12 w transmitted and the towers were usually 100 w You could easily talk from fifteen or twenty miles away from the tower that was up on the mountain When they started actually creating cell sites they reduce the power of the hand-held cellphones to 4 watts but the towers are still 100 watts to this day. Theoretically the towers should only need to be 10 W but the company's all transmit 100 watt power for each frequency It's a lot of radiation I used to live on the top floor with 24 antenna towers above me and each of those antennas had 10 frequencies in use My RF field strength meter would peg off the scale every time I turned it on in my apartment I'm glad I don't live there now

Tell that to the PC, which is still around and thriving.

[@davinp]

@@DFX4509B Yes, there are still several PC manufacturers around. I was more talking about phone manufacturers.

How could Apple's dominance be "unfair?" They have a superior product and the support of its consumers. Its what every business strives to achieve.

I love this video so much. I'm 25 years old so I remember using MP3 players in middle school, and VCRs as a child. But I never understood what made things like floppy disks and fax machines so memorable to older folks. It kinda makes me appreciate more the advanced technology we have today, and why it's so nostalgic for others. Can't wait to join the older crowd reminiscing to my kids and younger people how things were "back in my day" 😂❤

[@melissagrant4178]

I still have a VCR, to watch all my VHS

[@davidrogan1292]

I remember the first type of diskman. The battery's would be used up in an hour and the disc would skip. They got alot better though.

[@1LovesButterflies]

Small thing, you labeled the movie “Pretty Woman” as year 1980 instead of 1990.

[@mysterious_bi_one]

Pagers still are still around but used by nurses and doctors in hospitals

[@michaelbraum77]

I'd say I miss my Disc Man, but I still have it and it still works perfect! As long as you don't walk, or jog, or run, or look at it the wrong way while using it! We do have a drink like Orbits, called Boba. Even larger pearls than Orbits!!! People are strange!

Floppy discs originally were those 5 inch 💾 Floppy that really were,"floppy".they were replaced by the 3 & 1/4 inch solid plastic ones but the name stuck.

[@truthhurts3524]

Think I was a freshman or sophomore in high school and my class was having a dance. I was tasked with bringing “drinks”, I wanted to bring the strangest soda. I brought a 2 liter bottle of Tab and Moxie. The bottle of Tab was gone within 10 mins of the dance starting. 😂

[@freelikeyve]

Please take me back to ANY time before Facebook and social media. I remember when the internet was only used for work and actual research and illegal music. AIM and MySpace changed the game. Also pornhub. After that, the world his been more and more terrible this new generation that grew up on social media are a bunch of school shooters and ignorant crackheads and everything good and fun and delicious about the 90s and early 2000s is EXTINCT

I still use MP3 players. They're smaller than a phone and the ones I have store a lot more music than a decently-priced phone does. The small size works a lot better for me when I'm biking, hiking or running. But then again, I'm kinda odd- I prefer to use the Internet on my computer with dual 27-inch monitors instead of squinting at a phone screen. I really only use the phone for texting and making calls.

Pontiac is the one that hurt me the most, I love my Pontiacs wasn’t a model of the brand you couldn’t get a high performance version of other than the vibe and Aztec, all of the had a GTP or GT trim that came with either a V8 or turbocharged or supercharged V6

[@Peg-zl9lr]

You wouldn't be allowed to use that name today, ostensibly, because it would offend indigenous people. IMNSHO, it's because the powers that be want to erase indigenous people's from the public consciousness.

Mp3 players are still right at Walmart, I literally just bought one. Many people don't wanna use their phone as an Mp3 player.
