Did anyone else have Apple 2e and Apple 2c Computers at school - in the 80's.

 

We had to draw blocks and stuff using Logo I think - a small turtle thing.

In PE in 83 or '4 we had this thing that was the size of a modern day supercomputer that had the class doing nothing but maths problems on it. I mean like the times tables in Standard 3, not sophistimicated stuff like actual graphics.

Yup. Logo. 

 

was rad! Then there were the games. This little car thing that had to jump over gaps and ramps etc. Then Prince of Persia, the original Sonic (sega) and Mortal Kombat. So much fun...

Left school at the end of 1968!

 

Went to work as a mining cadet in what was then Rhodesia (I had ambitions of becoming a mining engineer) and earned the princely sum of £50 a month, on which I bought my first car ---- a 1959 Austin A40 Farina, cost me £90, 2nd hand of course.

Who remembers hearing this on the radio, a popular radio serial:

 

“If I don’t see you through the week, I’ll see you through the window”

As it happens, I'm busy restoring a few Commodore C64.

Hi,

sold my VIC and Commodore computers about 2 years back, but recently found I still have a "Speech 64"  synthesiser.

Pics below - let me know if you interested in it.

Who remembers these?

Who remembers these?

My granny had a few of those back in the day. Didn't really pay attention to them back then, but I sort of appreciate them a lot more when I see them these days.
