Hey people my age, do you remember when your parents had phone bills that were extremely expensive?

I remember my dad being pissed once that we had an $800 phone bill which in today’s money would be around $2000.

I remember my first computer cost $1600, which was a ton of money back then. Now computers still cost $1600.

For cnt = 1 to 200
