Failed Google Search for GR2STARR

Ah, GR2STARR. Hard to believe that was a decade ago. The DEC Alpha server that hosted that account—and on which I learned Pascal—was rumored to have 64 megabytes of memory. Sixty-Four Megabytes.

I suppose if I wanted the full computer nostalgia experience, I could install GNU Pascal and run GLTerminal full-screen. Of course, that leaves out the insanity of using VMS, but some experiences are fun only in retrospect…
