When my Dad was a student at Whoopie Tech, I got to play Lunar Lander with a light-pen, on an oscilloscope screen. I was hooked.

I'd go to work with my Dad at times, I would play Adventure, or Rogue. If I got bored enough, I'd make some funny ASCII Cows.

When I was 8, my parents bought a Royal Guards pinball machine.

At home there was Atari. Then the 5200. My Dad got a Tempest machine for $150 in like '83.

Then I got into the friutbox IIe, Commode, Trash-80, etc.

Then NES came out, changed my attention.

In '91 I went to the PC. Played lots of stuff. Sim City 20k was awesome. Blake Stone. Wordtris, BBS doors.

I went back to console with the N64. Been with the console since.

And yes, Oregon Trail. It is important to learn about dysentery so young.
