around  1984-1985, we had all apples in hi skool mostly //e's and epson fx80
printers but there were a few ][+ models in an adjoining room. i remember
going to a mall once and seeing an apple ///, but was unfamiliar with it. 
in 1986 at a community college, they had more //e models, trs80 model 3
machines, i think, and ibm XTs with cga monitors. i never used anything else
until around 1988 when i discovered a friend with an atari 800xl with the
1050 disk drive and i used that to type in programs from the magazine called
compute, of which i still have the issues.
