I'm from the Son group. I remember the day when my Dad came home without 
  using the door bell like always but his keys. Of course he aroused 
suspicion with this uncommon behaviour and when my Mom caught him 
tiptoeing upstairs to his room with a big(!) boxed CoCo1 behind his 
back, the only alibi he found was to say "This is the new computer for 
our son, kids have to learn using this stuff nowadays!" or something 
like this. As a witness of this situation of course I was nailing him 
down to his statement each time he was using the CoCo and didn't want to 
  let me work with it. Finally he had to buy another one for myself...

PS: I guess he was so chicken-hearted because my Mom read before in one 
of those Women's Magazines that computers are like a disease and if they 
enter a family, they will drive any marriage into a divorce or something 
like that... ;-))))))))
