I also graduated into the heart of the dot com era (I was a friend's 'plus one' at the Wired Magazine 5th anniversary party). But my brain fixated on the dinnerware. I grew up in driving distance of the Homer Laughlin china factory and we went there on a grade school field trip in the 70s. Their stuff is super expensive but it's nice to hear the factory is still there and they found a market in commercial buyers.
