A friend of mine first wanted to get into computers in the mainframe era. He took his first program to the counter and the operator told him to come back tomorrow. He returned the next day and there had been a syntax error in his code. This won't do, he said. So he gave up. Move forward a few years and he got himself a C64. Now we can do something with a computer!
