Lol. We used to have a Commodore 64! That was our first computer. The best thing it did was collect dust!

My first computer was a Timex Sinclair. I learned to program in basic on it. Saved your programs on a cassette tape. You had to hook up your own tape recorder to it.

Programmed a horse race program for use in the dorm. Had 6 or so lanes and each loop an individual horse would move a random number of spaces on the screen from 1-3. We gambled using it. Ahhhhh, good times.

Apple II+ for me. Dual 5 1/4" floppies so you didn't have to swap disks. Saved a lot of guys in Choplifter...

WEST OF HOUSE
This is an open field west of a white house, with a boarded front door.
There is a small mailbox here.
A rubber mat saying 'Welcome to Zork!' lies by the door.
