First computer used: 1978 - terminal for a main frame at local college. The local college has a biorhythm program installed on their mainframe. I'd go to school and get kids to give me $3.00 for a print out of their biorhythm chart. Then I'd sneak into the computer lab at the local college, use the username and password written on the chalkboard to gain access and I would run the biorhythm program for the persons birth date, print out the results in these charts that would go on for dozens of pages of the old green bar paper and deliver them at school the next day. I think there were games and other stuff but I just remember making bank selling charts that cost me nothing.
1981 - 83 ? First computer owned. Radio Shack TRS-80, plugged into the TV, used a cassette tape for data storage. Wrote my first program in BASIC. A very loose interpretation of craps. 1987 - 88 Tandy EX-1000 - no hard drive, but it did come with the brand new 3 1/2" floppy drive. I had to buy an external 5 1/4" drive in order to use the programs and data I already had. I useless piece of crap. Used it as a typewriter and to play Majong more than anything. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion MX7 by Adobe® Dyncamically transform webcontent into Adobe PDF with new ColdFusion MX7.
