Disagree a little here. 486 computers came out around 1990, and at that time, every year was bringing another big jump forward in speed, RAM, etc. My first full-time job in 1996 I was using a Pentium with Windows 95 and did some Visual Basic / Access database programming as part of my job. This after doing Computer Science first year university in 1991 and using dBase - the tech leap between the two was large, to say the least.

Laptops - I would agree, bigger, heavier, but still around. Desktops far more common; every 2nd university student had one in the mid-90's. Of course, whether or not they are working is an entirely different matter.
