Dad got a Timex-Sinclair 1000 back when I was 5, and I wasn't allowed
to touch it. I had some computer magazine in 2nd grade or so, he said
he came home and found this awesome animated flag going on the screen
of his computer I wasn't allowed to touch, so he changed his mind. :)
Started with a CoCo 2 around 3rd grade, slowly got upgraded to disk
drives, then a coco 3, then a MPI, and and finally a full set up of
OS9LII with a hard disk about 1991.
Sold most of the hardware back in September. Still have the CoCos
though. The CoCoNet project might encourage me to keep those.
I have a few high-scores in the old Rainbow Scoreboard as well, for
Pitstop II and Pitfall II.
