storm Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I bought my first Pocket Computer or PC in 1981. It was a Sharp PC3500 with 3.5kb ram expandable to 10kb. You can write simple programs using BASIC. It was very useful then for solving engineering problems using simultaneous equations, iterations and matrices. Useful also for storing formulas. Hehehe. It was also durable. In 1981 sumikat ang Ako'y Pilipino ni Kuh Ledesma. Tinanggal na ang Martial Law pero takot pa rin ang mga tao kay Makoy. Powerful pa rin noon ang mga militar. Wala pa ring congress. Mga assemblyman ang mga tawag noon sa mga congressmen ngayon. Unicameral noon. Ang channel 2 noon ay hindi kapamilya ni hindi rin ABS-CBN. Magkakasama noon sa Broadcast City ang channels 2, 9 and 13. The others were ch 4 na ABS-CBN compound ngayon at siempre ang GMA 7 na pag-aari pa noon ni Uncle Bob. Ang UHF noon ay FEN channel 17 and you'll need siempre ng UHF antenna. I stayed then in YAKAL (1982-1985). Sino kaya taga-Yakal dito? Nasa Yakal ako noong Aug 21, 1983 nang humahangos na bumaba mula sa TV room ang mga nakapanood na pinatay daw si Ninoy sa Tarmac. Noon medyo natauhan ang mga Pinoy. Nauso bigla ang dilaw at nirevive yung Tie a Yellow Ribbon ni Tony Orlando. Nauso rin noon ang tear gas at noise barrage. Nauso rin ang Ninoy t-shirt na dilaw at ang "L" sign. 80s lumabas ang MTV. Pinasikat nito ang mga good-looking singers and bands. Hindi na pwedeng basta magandang boses mo. Kailanganng magaling ka ring gumalaw at magproject sa video. 80s ka kapag napanood mo ang MTV ng INXs, Wang Chung, Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, Madonna na hindi pa siya muscular, Billy Idol, David Bowie, Huey Lewis and the News, Cars, Cyndie Lauper, U2, B52, China Crisis, AHA, The Cure, ABC, Tears for Fears, Banana Rama, Millie Vanillie, Vanilla Ice, Taste of Honey, Hall & Oates, yung tatay ni Nicole Ritchie na si Lionel, EWF, yung Xanadu and Let's Get Physical ni Olivia Newton-John, Prince and many others but siempre ang hari noon ay si Michael Jackson na kamukha pa niya noon si Diana Ross.

sho munaki Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I loved the 80s, but I always laugh when looking at old photos or videos from the 80s. Tacky perms on men and women, jheri-curls, mullets, spandex, cheesy hair-bands, etc. Quote Link to comment
CarneChaser Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 The 80s were a struggle. Too much school to really ever notice the good things about that era. The 90s were much better for me. Quote Link to comment
