In my day, we didn't have these fancy-schmancy high-ASCII characters, We had what was on the keyboard, and we made do.
You kids today with your umlauts and your copyrights and your fractions-squeezed-into-one-character...bah! *wanders off, muttering to self*

And you are how old?
If we're going to start stories of the beginning of the computer revolution, a lot of bad feelings will result. I remember DOS. I remember Applie IIe's, when programs ran right off of floppies (and a megabyte was a LOT of memory) and games were about gameplay, not graphics. Oh, those were the days...

I remember when I was five or six, my mum was programming on the Commodore 64. CASSETTE TAPES, DUDE, CASSETTE TAPES!

When I was just a little older, I was programming on my C64. God, I loved that machine. (It's no coincidence that I chose Commodore as my "rank.")

Just as a thought, does this mean that Alec Guinness will be making a guest appearance?

Well, I can't claim any usage of the C64, but I still get warm fuzzies about the Apple IIe. That was the way to go. Programs on floppies. They ran right off the disk, and if the disk got corrupted, throw it out and take out another one.
Cassette tapes? Hopefully you don't mean audio tapes. Quick poll. How many DOS commands can everyone rattle off the tops of their heads?
