"This was my first PC back in 1981 when there
were only two shops selling computers in Auckland. One was a TRS 80
shop in Fort Street Auckland and the other was Dick Smith in Newmarket.
Apart for the time that it took to download a program
from a cassette tape one of the biggest problems was that the System
80 used to generate a lot of radio frequency interference that affected
people' TVs.
Good memories though. It was the start of interest
in computers and a whole new career in computers and IT related positions.
Yes it all began with the Dick Smith System 80."
