nostalgia
The Tic Tacs website is nostalgic in many ways:
SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
PC: Operative system Microsoft Windows Windows 7/8.1/10. PLUG-IN Adobe Flash Player 9 downloadable from the site
MAC: Operative system Mac Os MacOS 9/10/11. PLUG-IN Flash 9 downloadable from the site
I just wanted to buy some Dr Pepper Tic Tacs, but alas, I don’t have Flash.
So we were all talking about Palm Pilots, and someone mentioned that they’re available dirt cheap off eBay.
Sigh. I didn’t need this, but it arrived today anyway.
Frankly, a lot of the IIIxe’s assets hold up well. One hardware button press and the relevant app is open and ready half a second later. My fingers remember how to write Graffifi. No notifications, except calendar event reminders I configured. I’ve used less productive devices all too recently.
