The first code I wrote was on a Tandy Color computer (CoCo) in basic.  I
had 16k to work with and no backup cassette tapes, so I had to write
everything down as I made corrections onscreen.  Somewhere around the
year 1979.

No hard drive, so everything went when the computer was powered down. 
Whenever I wanted to run the program again, I would power the computer
on and break out my notebook.  Then I'd start typing the program in
again from the notebook notes.

After that I could run the game. ;)
