First Computer

I remember bugging my mother to get me one of these when I was about 14. I'd never used a computer before but had looked at the list of commands and seen 'TRON' which I duly typed expecting to play a game based on the film. Needless to say turning line number TRaceing ON wasn't particularly impressive! Later I learned BASIC then assembler and had a couple of games pubished by Microdeal; Wizards Quest (an Atic Atac clone) and Airball (loosely based on Knight Lore).

Still got the Dragon in the loft, might see if it still works.
