If you weren't feeling old

Makes me remember my first computer. All my friends wanted one and for a while I was the only kid who had it

I think I used to use one of them to play Oregon Trail.

Mary was never the same after the typhoid.
 



Ahhh yes, good times.
 
***** son... back in my day.. you couldn't go for a jog with your discman and not lose your mind/smash it.

This was a game changer!!

These kids are under 10 yrs old. They've never seen one & can't logically solve problems as yet. Their brain hasn't even been fully developed.

Its not surprisingly for their response

I'm only 22 and even I feel old now...and yea i remember having to hunt down a Coax adapter for my Ps2 cause we couldn't afford a tv with cables back then...ohhh good times.\

I was more than happy with my dad's old Sega Genesis. I was super jealous of my buddy's dreamcast...then Ps1. My first PC was a Daewoo!
 
^ I have a working one and the b&w TV that my parents bought for us in '77.

Not old, just a great vintage!
 
I think I have you guys beat. I'm not the oldest, but we had a Tandy Color Computer as our first computer. There wasn't any games or anything, it was just a disc drive and a flashing cursor.

We did have a book full of code, we so had to code our own programs. Whether it was a flashing pixelated fire works display or a cursor moving through a river.

First exposure to a computer for me was the Commodore VIC 20 with a cassette drive.

I totally forgot about those. I remember having one as well. The games for them were huge and slid in the top of the keyboard if I recall
 
back in my day when you wanted a computer andthought you were going to play video games, you got one of these:

after you typed in the program you could play it, and if you didn't have a disk drive well....enjoy it until the power went out....
