In 1979 I was still hanging out in my mom's ovary. My Y chromosomes hadn't even enrolled in ballsack school yet. Little did I know they would graduate at the top of their class. It was the last time I was best at anything.

I'm with ya, although we had an Apple //e with a massive 146k disk drive and a Zenith 15" green monitor. Castle Wolfenstein FTW!

I still collect Apple IIs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Growing up a friends father worked for IBM. Back in the early 80's they had a PC jr. or something with a ram expansion sidecar....wrapped in tinfoil (supposedly as a heatsink?.) I wish I had a picture of that shit!

My mom worked for TI, got one for Christmas. Parsec was way better than Defender.
