I was working at a custom loom cutting electronics/electrical company when the last one happened. IIRC 1999?

August 1999 was the last total eclipse.

In Britain tomorrow’s eclipse is just partial.
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.
