A Blast from the Past -- 11:10 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

OK, now I feel even older. I found this this old ad for my first computer, the Commodore VIC-20. Ahh, the days of 6502 assembler. As if that ad weren't enough, they also have this one with an endorsement from none other that William "Captain Kirk" Shatner himself! That one also shows you how hairpiece technology has advanced in the past 20 years.

I had a Commodore Datassette (it's amazing how long it takes to save 3K of data to a tape drive), a VICModem, the Super Expander, and the 8K Memory Expander. Later, I upgraded to a Commodore 128. Boy, that makes me think about all the hours I blew playing M.U.L.E. and Archon on my roommate's Atari 800 in high school.
