Come on now, who else rocked Donkey Kong on the Coleco?

Im too high tech :winkwink:

Back in the day, that was high-tech...lol

wait, does it need tapes?? :thumbsup

Yep, and if you were high-end you had a dual tape player! :thumbsup

games and programs were recorded on tapes...no hard disks and maybe just 32 kb of ram or something like that

I remember that shit... Never actually got one though...

No, dude you're fucking old!























Heh heh, just kidding. I had one and a TI before that. Those tape drives were cooler than floppies IMHO.

Adam, TI, and Amiga......... Damn, I am old.... :helpme :1orglaugh :helpme

I had an awesome really old atari if that counts.

Oh my friend I had the Adam. I grew up in the town that coleco was based ouit of. I had them all back in the day. Colecovision, Intellivision, C-64, 2600 ect...adam was a technical nightmare for Coleco. Almost put them under until the Cabbage Patch kids saved their asses.

Zaxxon owned...heh

That what I use to surf the web :)

I hated my tape drive, it took what seemed like forever for my computer to find what it needed. Fuck sequential access data, random access is the shit. I don't miss tape drives at all. I'm glad they're practically extinct, I can't wait until they're totally extinct.

If you had a Commodore 64, then you were usin some high tech shit. I was sportin a Vic 20. :pimp

my first computer was the apple 2e yeah I was big ballin...

I had one of these babies. :) Texas Instruments Ti 99 with the processor built right into the keyboard. I remember the big ass book they sent out with the thing. My pops would spend 8 or 10 hours writing a code from the book just to see some ball or blip on the screen change random colors.

That brings back memories. I got one of those for Christmas when I was about 7. I remember my mom not wanting me to have it, but my Dad insisted on buying it for me. And now look what happened :1orglaugh

My first computer, I just about wet my pants with excitement when I turned it on and wrote a basic program.

I loved them old computers.... I had a TRS-80 for the longest time til it just died one day.

I actually still have 3 adams.....

I also have the Atari module, Roller ball module, 300bps modem, voice module (it would speak), custom modded HDD controller which added a 40meg hdd to the thing :),

ALl my friends has Coleco,intelivison,atari,Nintendo...i rocked one of these COMMODORE 64's and had ALL the badass games and more and the atari joystick plugged right in!!..best part was they were all HAcked on floppy..usually had to type in the SYS64738 code in for them to work

Ya think I am gonna admit to my age based on an Adam?

Ok.

I recall seeing these :-))

I was 11 when I got my first Atari 800

How about a Processor Technology and then a NorthStar. Can you say CPM?

Yeah i wanted an ADAM sooooo bad..i remeber they were about 750 bucks back then..big time cash for a 6th grader with no job and not-so-rich-parents

Ahhh all the classic computers, I was playing with my four year old nephew's Robosapien, and thinking back to the good old days of robots, remember this?

I should also mention that I was terrorizing my nephew's miniature daschund with the Robosapien and later in the night the daschund viciously attacked the Robosapien, nice to see he can fight someone his own size. :1orglaugh

I never had one but my aunt did.. I rember that thing.. My first computer was a TI-99.

haha there it is.. yea that's when I gave up being a programmer.. :1orglaugh I wrote some program took me 3 hours.. and all it was was two damn dots that jumped around the screen..

It was the good time ;)

Just found this Portable Commodore 64 version on this site, never saw it before

I've never seen one of those before!

Me either my first computer I used was a apple pc 1989 I think

damn... all of you are young.

Color TV came out when I was 7

:thumbsup

I still have my Timex 2048 (the ZX Spectrum clone).
48KB ought to be enough for anybody!

I am old enough yes, but I was not into computers then.

First computer I had was a zx81 Not sure if you yanks had them?
