Deep inside a Delaware strip mall closet, an old, forgotten Pentium computer's NPC.EXE is running wild, compiling deranged and out-dated modmails that read... well, retarded like THIS! Any local frogs up for a mission? Please find & unplug this poor museum relic of a PC! It is suffering! 🐸

YOU'VE GOT BETA MALE!
Nice!
My Commodore 64 had the cassette storage also. I was soooo excited to upgrade to the 5-1/4" single sided disk peripheral.
My dad and his coworkers used to trade "cracked" / bootleg games & programs almost weekly.
Made it much easier to do book reports than use my grandmothers mechanical typewriter.
I had a friend who had an AMIGA and I was SOOO jealous of its 16-bit colour! Did you ever program with it? Or just play games? I tried programming games
I saved up for the 128 and a dot matrix printer and a 300 baud modem. Was pretty high tech at the time. It ultimately led me to my current career as an IT admin that allows me to be able to work from anywhere there's a reliable internet connection.
Lordy - I first used computers and the only thing on the screen was the menu lol 1. Word etc lol Had maybe 4 or 5 options. My dad started in computers and used to have those punch cards they used lol
Oh and I remember that I bought it at a Mervyn's, which has also gone by the wayside.
The dude that lived in the barracks room beside me at my first base had an Amiga. He kept having to get it fixed because he was using all of the copied games and kept getting viruses all the time.
College dorm friend had an AMIGA. I was shocked how good and fast the graphics were. Made me jealous.
Yes, did lots of programming. Even had a subscription to Compute's Gazette where i would read each line of code to my dad and he'd type it in hoping the checksum would be correct. Was saved by sys 49152 many times when I tried to tweak the games myself.
I was a B & C student in school since I was bored, but in tech class I was showing the teachers stuff. Even in college, the Asian kids were asking me for help in the computer labs.
