Re: OOT: Thread Overflow Depository (AKA: The Hija
The first computer I ever used was a Commodore Pet. It had a small green monochrome screen, and a slow, slow tape drive. The programs were written in BASIC. The very first video game I played was on that Commodore Pet. It was Space Invaders, and the graphics were very blocky. But it was wonderful...
The very first word processor I used was called "Magic Windows" and it ran on the Apple IIE. We inserted control characters before and after sections of text to get formatting like bold and underline. I was so happy with it because a word processor was so superior to an electric typewriter. I learned to type on an IBM electric typewriter...
The very first graphics program I used was Print Shop on the Apple IIE. I used it to make title pages for reports and things. When I think back, I realize just how clunky those graphics were and how slow that program ran, but at the time I thought it was so great.
