My parents spent nearly 60% of their salary buying their 9 year old son an Apple II compatible machine, I'm sure with high hopes. Buyer's remorse probably set in very quickly when they realized their two sons used it primarily for playing bootleg copies of Olympics, Karateka, Rescueraider, and spy vs spy. I don't know what the hell they were thinking, but I'm still forever grateful for their failed attempt.
