System 80/Video Genie/PMC-80 Reminiscences


From Anonymous, New Zealand (3rd January, 2006)...

"A great walk down memory lane. I still have my system 80 and don't have the heart to biff it, it cost me an arm and a leg in the "good old days", maybe even my soul.

I bought it through the PSIS - when they use to have shops. It was the first computer that I ever learned to write machine code on (had to poke values into the memory to create the programs). I even attempted to write a computer game "Ice Cube" based on the Atari game Pengo.

I must have wasted a fair percentage of my life playing Scott Adams games (what do you do with a juju bag?). "
