RE: What was your first computer??
1985 i got a IBM PC junior, first computer with a color monitor
no hard disk and 64k ram i upgraded the ram to 512k later.
i learned basic a wrote my own OP this was pre windows. i had to leave a 5.14 floopy with the OP in the drive esle all you would get was an A:

but my dad worked for bell labs back in the 60's thru the 80's so i got to mess around with the mainframe on the weekends when i would go into the labs.
it had a treminal with a printer, no monitor. you typed it printed. i would play this silly star trek game.
i think my new laptop has move horsepower then the building sized mainframe.
wow had not thought about that in years thanks for the memory trip!

Was it like a S-100 or something?

Commodore 64. Bought it at a garage sale in Anaheim CA in 1985. The person selling it had won it as a prize somewhere and never taken it out of the box. No monitor, so I hooked it up to the TV. LOL. I remember it came with Frogger and Jumpman Jr.

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

I used to be addicted to Wizardry, and the Infocom text adventures like Zork as well.

I'm a computer gaming geek, always have been and always will be.

Apple ][ was my first computer probably around 1980, but I was programming DEC mainframes using punch cards for "memory" way back when. Our "monitor" was a dot matrix printer. Remember those days anyone? chuckle Old timer obv.

Zork came later, by the way.

The first text adventure was just called "Adventure" I believe.
