cheap, not sadistic. The end result is me being the most successful in my family with first a career and now multiple technology businesses. I spent all that time learning C64 basic and some assembly. I used to type in games that I found in C64 magazines at the library. I had no way to save it, so sometimes it would take me multiple days. A few times, the power was cut :-( and I had to start over.
