It really was an amazing time. Seeing that bootup screen with the blue on blue still turns on that feeling of, "Exciting discovery awaits".... Prior to accidentally taking "Computer Science" in school (it was that or drafting), I had no idea what it was about. It was like trying heroin for the first time. Commodore Pets at school and a year later, I worked my ass off all summer the save up to buy a C-64 when it first came out. Parents chipped in for the tape recorder.
