    Our first computer was a the Franklin Ace 1000 which was an Apple IIe knock off. There were so many fun games for that: Wolfenstein, Apple Panic, Moon Rover…

    The problem was all of our software was pirated. You'd get close to the end of the game and the disk drive would start grinding and you'd lose your place in the game.

        Now that I think about it,my dad had an early PDA. The Sharp Wizard,I think. It was issued to Prudential employees. Since I was the only one who knew how to use it,I had to go with my dad to work one time to show everyone how to use it.

            I am old school. I had a IBM Tandy Fountain (before windows) and we did everything in DOS. If you didn't know DOS and it's associated programs like Nutshell and Lanex you were out in the cold back then.
