> When he started Zip2 he couldn't afford a second computer

What does this sentence mean, why’d he need a second computer? Parsing out the odd wording that means he could afford a computer

What’s with the second computer? It’s proper nerd sniped me this haha



One computer for development, one for a server. He couldn't afford a second so had to use his primary for both purposes.


Actually in fairness that does make sense given a bit of thought
