I received my last degree in 1984 from Michigan State University.

I used an Apple ][ to type out my thesis. When I submitted it, it was 
a big deal in the submission office because they had never seen an 
original manuscript before. Everything up to that point had been 
type-written pages with white-out mixed with photo copies and such. 
Mine was a simple and clean original type-written manuscript.

When I told them that I had used an Apple ][ word processor to print 
my thesis, they had no clue of what word processing was and had ever 
heard of such a thing.

How things have changed in less than three decades.

Cheers,

tedd
