I probably spent another $400 on a 16k Ram card and a 5 1/4 floppy drive! That Cassette tape drive was just too slow!
Yep, I'm old too. I put myself through college on a Vic 20 and bought a C64 in the last year of school. Used to write simulations in Commodore basic

Was also addicted to that stupid game shamus..... we'd stay up all night playing

Hilarious.... and we're still tweakers after nearly 30 years
