When my brother installed Mopy Fish in our computer, I had no idea, what was in store for me.
It’s a tiny little cyber pet, which you can pat with your mouse, feed everyday and based on the points that you accumulate, we can buy all the ‘necessary’ stuff for the little fish in aquarium screensaver. I believe if there was a computer character in my childhood, which I was able to connect emotionally, it would have been mopy, evident from the fact that I was deeply hurt when went to our home town and then coming back to find that mopy was dead. Luckily, brother knew how to bring him/ her back alive. And I was so happy again.
