The good old days, I was in my hazy 20's

Before Windows came out I can remember paying games when the data was stored on cassette tapes

Yep yep.

I remember the days when you could put 10, 15 games on a floppy with an Apple II. I miss writing programs in old BASIC... all this object-oriented crap messes with my head.

Our first computer had MS-DOS, I don't even remember what brand the computer was, I'd have to ask my mom, that was when I was about 4 years old. I'd sit there and watch her do things, between that and her teaching me I learned how to do command line myself not too long after. I'd pop in my floppy disk games and play until I was blue in the face.

Now here we are almost 20 years later, my how things have changed, as shown in this thread.
