Re: Thanks!
I had a 8088 PC back in 1988. It took the place of the lovely ZX Spectrum. But I only catch up with the modems with my Zoom 14.4. I was sysop of a BBS too... eh! Good times!

Vic-20 with tape drive, typing in programs (games) from Compute! magazine. At least I remember that being the name of the C-64/Vic-20 rag.
