  Re: Age average
 
(...) We got our first computer in the early '80s and it was an Apple IIe, a "portable" computer. I thought it was so cool! I only remember 3 games from it, a Lord of the Rings game, Oregon Trail, and an early Sierra game called "Mark's Tale" or (...) (26 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: Age average
 
(...) Yes and we had one of the first Apple II+ computers around 1978 or 1979 I think (not to clear as far as the date). We thought it was the best thing ever. It had 2 5-1/2 inch floppy drives and that was it. About 2 years latter we upgraded it (...) (26 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.people, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
