    It's dawning on me that to have owned only four mobile devices—such that only two are "smart"—in one's life is uncommon for an adult in a developed nation. In my case, in reverse chronological order:

    • Two smartphones: one for several years and counting, the other for nine (!) years.

    • One flip phone for several years.

    • One candy bar phone for several years.

    Anyway...welcome to my first quote post, everyone. And special thanks to Dgar.

      People just don't appreciate the incredible tech that came out of #RadioShack and #Tandy

        I have dim awareness; but mostly I was too young for that brand to have made a major impression on me.

        In fact, one of my strongest memories of it was always wishing its stores offered a kid-friendly product guide. To explain what exactly it was all about. Could have filled in a lot of tech education gaps in our school curricula.
