Electronics: played Pong on an Atari console, and it was cool. Learned to write computer programs using punch cards. First "big" handheld electronic game was probably Coleco Head to Head Football. As teens, we rented VCRs because almost nobody owned one. My first PC was a 286 that had a whopping 40MB hard drive and it cost about $2k, with a 14" amber monitor. Sweet!

As a kid, new DC Comics - the best - were maybe $0.50. Sunday nights meant watching a Disney hour that wasn't always animation. Dad probably got change back from a $10 bill for the odd family meal at McD's.
