Please share your stories about living during the 1980s. I'm increasingly fascinated with this decade and would love to read some firsthand accounts.

Some food for thought:

(I will add more to this list over time.)

1. What was being an 80s Star Wars fan like?

2. Were you tech-savvy? If so, were you an audiophile, a videophile, a computing enthusiast/programmer, ...?

3. Which technological developments excited you? Which didn't excite you? What did you think was coming soon, but was actually far off?

4. Did you participate in the early home video revolution? If so, how did you, for instance, obtain all of the episodes of Star Trek (TOS)?

Please don't just reply to this list. Write stories!
