I'm youn
If only I had bought a bunch of apple stock back then.....
At one time, those were a big status symbol. When I was in high school, the mid 1970s, a kid had one. IIRC, it cost about $350 or so. We're talking add, subtract, multiply, divide...and that's it. They had already started coming down in price and I'm old enough to have been in school when the best calc ever (Yes, I'm trying to start an argument.) came on the market - the TI 30.Today you can buy a single-function calculator at a dollar store for $.99 ...
Is there a typo in there?It wasn't until about 2006 that I purchased a Commadore 64.

I connected to BBSes with a 300 baud modem and an IBM PC jr.
I thought it was just a game.Didn't you dial into the WOPR computer once and nearly start a war?
Almost start a war? I'd be interested to hear that story.
