TECH TIP

Do you remember when…? o Your entire house had just one telephone and the entire family took turns using it. o When the phone rang, the person closest to it answered it. o It was located on a “telephone stand” which was probably sitting against an outside wall. o It was hard-wired to a terminal block, which meant you couldn’t just pick it up and carry it around the house. If you wanted to talk on the phone, you more or less had to […]
