When I was a little kid, until I was a teenager, my family had a Commodore 64. It was complete with 5.5" floppy drive and a one button joy stick. I had some great games. Like Frogger, Roger Rabbit, and Where In The World Is Carmen San Diego. We also had some other non-traditional games or programs. There was one that let you write music. It gave you a blank score and then you would add notes and click play to here it played electronically. I guess that was the precursor to Garage Band. Anyway it was pretty cool. My dad told me that he thought when he bought it, "how will we ever use 1 Mb of memory?" Wow, things sure have changed. I bet if my mom had saved all of the letters she typed on that thing it would have taken up a whole gigabyte today.
That 'machine' was such a treat for our family!! I understood that technology (I think)! I actually really like Frogger!
