I can still remember playing Pong and thinking it was the greatest thing in the world.

I still say the TI 99/4A was the greatest 16kb computer ever built!

There was a time, young one, when computer programs were saved on cassette tapes. Nothing like waiting five minutes to launch a program.

Mine too. The only good game was some sort of Dugeons and Dragons thing. Can't remember what it was called. Ours eventually fried itself - it got way too hot.

Zork, maybe?

I had a C64, and there were other good games for it...Warship, and Battlecruiser were two...

I had a C64 with the optional disc drive while stationed in Germany 20+ years ago. Even had a flight simulator program with it. Compared to what I'm using now, it may as well have been a Model T.

I had a Commodore 64 also. I used it well into the 1990s because it had some great games on it. It was also relatively easy to program yourself. Of course my computer now can do things a Commodore could never dream of. While cleaning out some of my old things the last time I moved a couple years ago I ran across an old punch card program I did many years ago for a class on the University of Wisconsin's Univac 1108. Now that is truly an antique.

I bet there's an emulator somewhere on the internet. I just downloaded a TI 99 4/a emulator and have been reliving my childhood.
