Good point! Staring at an old rotary phone willing a text msg to appear on it... :? The lad's had a lucky escape there.

Mind you I suppose I used to will my Speccy to have a higher colour resolution back in the day.

:lol: I knew somebody would beat me to pointing out the obvious flaw with this picture.

Also he's about 12 and she's about 25, so any interaction of that nature would be highly inappropriate.

I don't know about that: some providers offer a service where texts are converted to voice messages using text-to-speech so that they can be received on a landline telephone. I think the real question is whether a rotary phone can still be expected to work on the modern phone network, unless there are buttons in the ringer rather than a rotating piece...

Juan. This meme has been a catastrophe. You haven't let me down—you've let yourself down, and everyone else on the forum. Oh and me—you've let me down as well.

Luckily for you, I can use my advanced photoshop skills to get you out of this mess:
