Maybe that is why I prefer strategies and simulations than those nice, shiny and flashy action games.
Dude, mine was a Radio Shack TRS-80 with a cassett drive.... LOL.. what a POS but it was all there was.
Oh man, fire up the wayback machine! I had a Vic20 (with the cassette drive), C64 (with the separate 5.25" floppy drive the size of a toaster oven), Amiga 500 (with the plug-in SCSI HD) ah Commodore computers, those were the days!

Oh, and I'm a 36 year-old subsimmer. (and nostalgic computer geek)
