I was thinking back to my first computer , a Commodore 64 I bought in 1982. My whole system cost about $2000 back then. I got interested in computers while using them in the Navy in 1970. Around 1985 , I could connect to a form of internet called Q-Link using a modem you hooked to your phone line. Writing a small program back then might take a few days using basic language. By todays standards it would seem like driving on the interstate highway while doing about 3 miles per hour , really slow back then.
When did you first get a computer and find the internet ? Seems hard to believe I've been hooked on computing for over 30 years.
