DOS and various flavours of the Unix Command Lines are hard wired to my fingertips. I learned about computers on a PDP-11. Damn, I should be in a museum. Smiley: lol

Rofl me too. My first was a Tandy TI-99 4A. Hooked into my TV set back in the days of punch cards and brown cable boxes.

Nonsense. What could possibly go wrong when entering this?

I only ever coded the one machine code based game. That was enough to let me know if it involved typing in 800 lines of random numbers with my lack of spelling ability to keep things identical, then I really didn't want to play that game. Though it was pretty fun, a helicopter fly through the mountain simulator type game. I was proud of it when I was done, even though all I did was copy and compile it. Still, I was 7 at the time so it was an accomplishment! The best one I ever finished though was Laser chess. It was chess, with lasers!

HA! I remember Laser Chess!

Back in the day, you could go to computer shows held at the county fairgrounds and someone would be selling 5.25" floppies with all the programs from a specific month of Compute! on them. So I just waited for those and then had a list of which months had looked good and bought the disks for a couple bucks each.
