Re: Remind anyone of TV?


Actually, I am not as old as I make myself sound, I just feel that way. I was about 7 when I would play around with the machines at Taft College, where my Mother went to school, and would sit there and watch her work, then actually started working on them with her.

In High School, I worked on a CCC Mainframe system with about 60 terminals... we also had a smaller lab with a Commodore Pet, PC Jr., and a couple Ataris(computers).

My First home system was a Timex Sinclair 1000, with a tape drive.
