Must be a really old model

Its a real fossil!
Our hospital uses some about that ancient.
Wow, how many people would actually use trilobite in a sentence let alone out of context?
A trilobite is awfully old. Windows actually runs on such a system????
...and 300 mil's of RAM.
What's a trilobite? I studied IT but never heard of it before
what is a trilobite?? i never heard of it!!is it like B/W TV old?
Trilobites were a lifeform during the Cambrian period, several hundred million years ago.
only a troglodyte would announce the size of his hard drive.
Love it! Used to go trilobite hunting as a kid...Lots of them to find if you know where to look.
Randomly, I saw a little girl wearing a version of this shirt the other day, and it cracked me up.
I feel clever when I immediately know the reference in the patient's name. This could be a reference to Moore's law - essentially that computers double in complexity every two years. Gordon E. Moore co-founded Intel.
I feel less clever for using Google to learn of an important document on trilobites edited by Raymond Moore in 1959: Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, Part O, Arthropoda 1, including Trilobitomorpha)
never heard of a trilobite (trilobyte?)....I did instantly think of a tribble though. Semi-random.
Millions of years old beasties vs millions of kilobytes beasts.
Not much (!) difference, really...
except the computer probably has more memory.
Soon, he will be overrun with them. They will fill all the cupboards and closets, eat all the food, and--
Oh, trilobite. I suppose that's not as much trouble.
