My very first game on a 5.25 floppy was Zork III. I still see Grues in my sleep as I wonder through the hidden chambers of King Flathead.....

Re: Solid State Hard Drives
Ok...first PC was a commodore Pet...it looked like an egyptologist built it with a vision of the SPinx in mind.

We upgraded the ram from a slow 4k to a screaming fast 8k....

AT times it would not "boot" so I would grab one of the "peripheral" parts of the MB that stuck out the side of the PC and bend it upwards to get the PC to boot. I dazzled my friends poking sine waves and watching the neat double helix it made down the screen.....man those PCs back then were practically useless

Then I got a commodore 64. I remember typing in machine code from the back of a magazine and using their compiler to turn into a neat video game...anyone remember Impossible Mission?
