man wakes up after 20 years in a coma
i did not know where to post it so choose here
the man now aged 39 years old is still stuck in the past he was 19 years old when he had a serious car crash and went in to a coma he has a daughter he is confused at what is going on around him all the computers technologys that surround him
the new consoles such as the ps2 and xboxs we all know will be a huge shock to this man as he only knows what technologys were back in the 1980's when pacman was introduced
quite interesting yet a bit shocking too

Blimey that is a shocker, fancy having to explain the last 20 yrs to someone who was out driving one day and next thing they wake up in a hospital bed 20yrs on. Scarey thought. Quite the miracle though.

"Hi, we notice from our records that you haven't paid 20 years of council tax,"
or maybe " We notice that several of your library books are overdue"

I think we should all wish him well in his recovery, it must be a shock though waking up after 20 years, mind you at least the pop stars have got a little bit better.

eh? Is there something we should know: 
Seriously, Everything must be a bit of a shock. In terms of computers, I was using a Commodore 64 round about then. Today, I am typing this on a PC that is (in theory) 1,700 times faster and has 4,194,304 times the memory. Yep I am typing this on a 1.7GHz P4 with 256 Meg Ram.
Anyway, I wish him well in his recovery. Hope he can deal with the changes without requiring too much counselling...
Just a quick thought. Imagine if he got home and found twenty years of papers on the front doorstep...

20 years in a coma? Are they sure he didn't just fall asleep listening to Radiohead or REM?

I didn't even have a computer then.
Mind you I did have one of those game things where you pressed the colours in a sequence to move to the next level.
I was only 4 or 5 at the time tho
