I miss Waldenbooks.
It's amazing that things you think are going to last forever go away. Howard Johnson's is pretty much gone. A lot of the great airlines are gone (Pan Am, Eastern, TWA, etc.). No more Oldsmobiles.

Perhaps Canon dominates slightly more in the lower end of the camera market, but once you get to the higher end of the market I think it's fairly close. And of course one manufacturer might be stronger in one market than another.
The Commodore PET was the very first computer I ever used. I wrote my first code on it, still remember it like it was yesterday. In fact the very first game I ever created was on the PET. It was a Lemonade Stand game. You had to buy lemons & sugar and make lemonade dependent on the weather forecast and previous sales. Man I loved that game, both making it and playing it.

Indeed he did. It was a Commodore PET 2001.
When I was a kid I loved going to Ames. Did anyone have an Ames? I am surprised Kmart is still around.
Yeppers! I miss that store.
When I worked for Ames, we had a motto: "As long as there's one in the store somewhere, we can't get sued for false advertising."
Don't make me hurt you.
Do we have to be so negative about a few jokes developing here?

No reason to be negative.
So does this mean that all cameras are considered canon?

I'm still processing these last few posts.
I guess it all depends on how you frame them.Do we have to be so negative about a few jokes developing here?

Waldens were in locations that Barnes and Noble weren't, was the thing. In my town, growing up, 1970s and early 1980s, Waldens was it. I spent many hours in there, and bought many books, almost all of which I still have. So, yeah, I really appreciate it, for what it was. What it was was the only bookstore to speak of at the time.

I shutter to think what will happen if you guys keep messing with my emulsions by continuing on with this debate. I might even throw you all in a darkroom and force you to sit on your butts until you have Polaroids.
Sony is still very much in television business. They aren't making CRT TVs anymore, but flats like everyone else these days.
^ Nobody is making CRT sets anymore, are they? I thought those died years ago.
I should have been more specific.
From Warped9's OP:
I remember them more from the 80s when it was common to say "I want my, I want my, I want my MTV." I seem to remember lots of events at Hard Rock Cafes and ads for Hard Rock Cafe on that channel.
Ah, MTV, which also qualifies for the topic of this thread.
^I agree. When did M(usic)TV become reality crap TV?
Isuzu manufactured the popular Chevy LUV and S-10 pickups... sold under the Chevrolet badge. I have owned 3 over the years.
Much like our own Leonard Nimoy, Vincent Price was a well-known artist, in addition to being a known actor.
I had some of those (usually knock-offs)! That also reminds me of the Members Only jackets. My dad still had his from the '80s at least up until a few years ago, don't know if he still does.I remember back in the late 80s, everyone in my neighborhood just had to get Jams. It's a wonder we survived.
