Retro Revival
Went to a well known local bank today and I can't believe what I saw!
A good old abacus right in front of a computer! Cool!
For those of you who are too young to know what an abacus is, here is the dictionary's explanation:
ab·a·cus n. pl. ab·a·cus·es or ab·a·ci (b-s, -bk)
A manual computing device consisting of a frame holding parallel rods strung with movable counters.
And you thought calculators were in. Retro's the word now...
