School Apple ][ and commodore PET. Writing simple loops in Basic. Bought the 101 computer games book and finally my parents relented and bought a Microbee. I ended up selling a game I wrote for that, but lost or gave away everything in the early 1990s. Recently a conversation on ebay of all places lead me back to a copy of that game and I was able to run it in an emulator. It was written in basic and the source code was back in all its teenage glory. Its...unimpressive but my teensy bit of 8 bit history being preserved like that was quite a surprise.
