Me too. I eventually did get a TDL/Xitan FORTRAN
version of ADVENTURE
running (CP/M 2.2 and PDOS), but I've never played any other computer
games I can recall (OK the old numeric TREK typed into DG Nova 1200
BASIC). It was all hardware, device drivers, tape storage, and operating
systems for me too
Lets face it most of the time BASIC was used it was for GAMES!
And M$ for the most part too!
Games on computer bore me to tears to this day. I
can't imagine a more
collosal waste of time! Obviously, an entire *world* of people today
think otherwise, more power to 'em!
But with out games, I don't think computers would have moved to
Bit-Mapped displays.
