Ahh, I remember the good (can you hear the sarcasm? 
) old days when computers just threw whatever they had in memory at the printer, and if it didn't all fit on the page it was your problem...
The word processing package we had on the BBCs at primary school, in particular, is painful to think about...
I'm *very* glad technology has advanced considerably since then...

The 'old' BBC's we had at primary school! I hate to tell you this but the poor old beasts are still going. I think that instead of GUY FAWLKES, we should burn several of the ancient monsters at the stake on Bonfire Night.
