"The first microwave was sold in 1960. Nobody usedthem until the late 1980's."
- Using "1980's" is incorrect. It should be "1980s", no apostrophe.
- "Nobody" incorrect. Unless you have 100% proof that nobody used them it should be something along the lines of "They were hardly used..." "Microwaves were rarely used..." "The majority of American households began using microwaves in the late 1980s." So and so forth...
