• Back in the Day.

  I grew up with electronics.  I wasn’t mr logic so I didn’t learn to program past simple infinite loops.   I didn’t have every single experience available – but I did enjoy many  here is   a small list of computer games- One I didn’t get to know of t but the lady sure was a celebrity.

  

  if I could do more than infinite loops LOL this might have been more fun

  – toshiba t1100 – It still technically worked in 2007 from 1991  when it was recycled you know tossed, it was the longest lasting computer I ever had

  

  I also had a screen reader computer a dos machine that I could see yes, hence the game below but also could play monopoly on also below and it didn’t look even this pretty as I had a blue on beige monochrome half screen  – however, I could close my eyes and play anyway as mine talked….why yes I’ll aution the property to me for one dollar thus it/I cheated

  oddly enough a cheese graphicbadic game called landmine…  landmine.bas  the followwing isn’t it you had to start at the top left corner and get to the bottom right  no number of  yeah the rest is minesweeper but you got a grenade or two to improve your chances not some sissy flags.

  the dell approach…would haveworked so so much better if I didn’t need to scratch the motherboard.

  

  remember nstorm games  I liked the elf bowling… of course you can find it but  it’s so easy to also find a virus so boo bye bye to time the good stuff.

  the WebTV  ahh,  below it still works and thus I’m still there lol what was that password 10 years ago?  lol this is how I taught my mom to use a computer. yes. I couldn’t interest her in the better macintosh, it took a wetv to get her to use it often enough to duplicate thus remember what she did .  this allow her to step into the modern world. 

  I kinda wish I had a picture or two from the time but um, bummer.

  I’ve owned another dell desktop, one fancy dell laptop, a toshiba laptop, and a loaner dell desktop lol, and this current asus laptop.

  the shittiest computer I’ve owned  cost use  the fancy dell laptop, even a used mac that lasted a few months was a better value.    the best electronic purchase I made was the webtv believe it or not including the over priced internet access.  best damn deal I had – and I taught my mom online with it bonus.    longevit and value still has toshiba up there as it’s the longest machine in use I ever had. over 16 years and it still worked when it met it’s maker *it’s fault were the ac in jack was lose and the battery  didn’t work so if you breathed or farted it lost power start over…)
