[Leica] Memories of Technologies Past

[r.s.taylor at comcast.net (Richard Taylor)]

When I moved into my office, it must have been twenty-five years ago now, 
this cable was hanging from the ceiling.   I think it was a cable to a 
VT-100 terminal, part of a technology all ready on the way out.

It was still there last week when I moved out of the office (I've 
retired--finally), despite multiple installations of succeeding generations 
of networking cables.  It was unused, uncommented upon, and forgotten all 
those years.  

I came to think of it as an "installation," like you would see in an art 
museum, a monument to old technology.

I will miss it.
