>>>Commodor Vic-20!!! <<<<

Glorified calculator, that! My senior year of Academy, a teacher everyone considered a freak convinced the school bord to purchase 5 Commodore 64's and he set them up in a closet and that year we had to learn to program BASIC. Towars the end of the year, they bought a couple more with COLOUR MONITORS and 5" floppydrives. So them we had to convert all our cassette tapes to floppy.

I learned to program BASIC in high school..... about 5 line loops.

What it boils down to is, kids are spoilt. They got annoyed when they only got 300points for collecting something. What the hell is that about? And expecting things to be 3D, psssh.

I also grew up with a Commodore VIC20, which was not replaced by the C64, no we didn't get a new computer til my mother won a $5000NZD computer package which contained a state of the art Amiga 500, a computer desk, Star1000 ribbon cartridge colour printer, some games and I think a chair as well. Oh, and an extra 512K (I think) of ram! Now most the games on the A500 were hell on joysticks. We must have went through a billion. That inturn didn't get replaced til they bought a PC after they'd (they as in PC's) finally almost caught up in graphics and sound (almost but not quite), with a 486 DX4-100Mhz.

I still think Pong is a cool game. GO PONG!

:stupid: :stupid: :stupid: :stupid:

Oh, you young blokes and your computer games !!!!!

You REALLY think they're the bees knees ????

Have a go at a fair dinkum, you beaut PINBALL MACHINE. In order to get a free game from one of them, mates, you had to be GOOD.

Plus you had the oportunity of socialising with your peers instead of being cooped up in your room staring at a screen and playing with your joystick.
