| 1255965 | 2012-01-27 01:05:00 | Ahh... Commodore 64 and the Blue Screen of Life On it I once wrote a driver for an acoustic modem that enabled me to transmit an A4 page to my computer at work in less than 30 minutes. Couldn't do that today to save my life. |

| 1255967 | 2012-01-27 03:02:00 | I had a Vic 20 before the 64. Ditto on typing in programs from mags! Learnt quite a bit that way, ended up adding hi-res graphics to a game that had ascii graphics. No way could I do that now. Thems were the days - waiting 30 mins for a game to load from tape. | Renegade (16270) | ||

| 1255972 | 2012-01-27 06:12:00 | Never was rich enough to own a 64 but I remember arguing about coding with my workmate who owned a vic20. I lorded it over him with my uber amstrad cpc464. That really went places didn't it, haha x_x I did manage to write a word processor prog and a machine code/ assembly game though. Good times.. |

Waiting 30 mins for a game to load from tape and if the game didn't work after loading, another 30 mins to load it again. :lol: |
