The guy waving his arms around was too much for me to take seriously. That was hilarious!

I stopped watching the video shortly after the introduction, as soon as I saw how hard the guy was working just so he could avoid using the mouse! :roll:

As far as the computers are concerned, I also started out with a Vic-20... Lol, it's like some kind of Commodore club we have going. I thought my Vic was the latest and greatest till my best friends parents got an Apple 2e, then we were all "ooh, aaah!" I remember a few all night Castle Wolfenstein fests where I played till my eyes went woobly

. Flashbacks to simpler times, I love it!

Cheers,
Stew

I always got the oddballs, first video game was the Magnavox Odyssey2 and my first PC was a Coleco ADAM.

I miss the oddball systems. Back in the day you had 5+ consumer systems to choose from, all wonderfully incompatible. I'm still looking for an ADAM and a TI99.

I just got rid of the ADAM not that long ago, took all the usuable parts out and threw the rest out.

I remember the Coleco Adam was a hot computer back in "the day."

Yeah, but that daisy wheel printer was painful to listen to on a 2 page print job, there was also lots of problems with the first ones, i think mine went back 2 or 3 times til i got one that worked properly.
