It's okey. The other poster you quoted was being silly so you got the quotation right.

But comparing avionics from 1989 as far as weather radar is concerned to weather radar installed on most aircraft TODAY is like comparing a pair of Nike Pegasus running shoes in 1986 to the more comfortable running shoes you buy on the market today.

Same exterior. Potentially same designs. But so much more comfortable and more advanced and a lot more expensive.
