This experiment was done by a blogger at Keacher.com (spotted by Time's Doug Aamoth ).

In geek speak, it involved a Mac Plus with an 8 Megahertz CPU, 4 megabytes of RAM, 50 MB hard drive, and 512 x 384 pixel black-and-white screen.

To compare, a Kindle Fire tablet uses a 2.2 Gigahertz CPU, has over 2 gigabytes of RAM and its screen can show 2560 pixels x 1600 pixels.

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
