I miss the old days: shareware games, non-user friendly computing, hardware upgrades that required more than just a pulse to achieve, calibrating joysticks and soundcards before every game, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!!

Is it just me, or does the background music in that vid remind anyone else of the Imperial March? Coincidence? I think not.
