Are people Rancho Santa Fe really snobby?

[quote=flu] New money does interesting things to people. Post-IPO but Pre-BubbleBurst NorCal people can get pretty bad [/quote]

FLU: I had a job at Apple during high school (1982), cleaning printed circuit boards (back when Apple fabbed their own computers, the IIc and IIe). This was right after the Apple IPO and, pretty quickly, folks there started trading the VWs in for Porsches. That was about when the attitude really started changing up there.

This may be before your time, but I remember the days of Steve Wozniak, Steve Jobs and the rest of the nerds hanging out at the Byte Shop in Mountain View with Paul Terrell and talking computers. That’s where it all started and, back before the money, it was just computer jockeys, engineers and programmers. There were some big players, like Lockheed M&S, IBM, Raytheon and Ford Aerospace (where my dad worked), but nothing like today.

Olivenhain is a nice quiet inland part of Encinitas. It is on the way to RSF from Encinitas. It seems pretty laid back and chill in my opinion.
Based on his information Olivenhain seems more like a good fit, plus the Target is just down the street.:)

I think I was in 3rd grade then around 1983 was when I got my IIe (thanks dad! :)…Helping my teacher use the IIe for a class presentation. I was one of the few kids that had a IIe …A whopping 128k memory, 80 column text card, joystick, floppy drive, and a ImageWriter dot matrix printer. My dad coughed up $3010.99 for that thing those days…I still have the receipt. Mine was partly made in taiwan. My friend on the other hand had a “Orange IIe”, which was a Apple IIE illegally copied and smuggled out of Taiwan.

The school’s system had me beat…A color monitor that could display 16 colors. Woohoo…. LOGO was the king of graphics then. “Show turtle”, etc…Hmmm, I should dig that out of my closet.

Those were the days.

FLU: Yeah, they were. My high school had a pair of Apple IIes and a pair of Kaypro IIs (running CP/M; remember CP/M?) and all four could connect to Stanford’s Dept. of Mathematics by acoustic couplers (where you’d connect the telephone handset to the coupler device and connect at like 2 baud or so it seemed). This was considered “bleeding edge” technology and I remember downloading differential equations for AP on those old dinosaurs.

Those were indeed the days.
