Dang. I never thought I’d see this again:

Yes, it’s confession time. My first computer of my very own was indeed a Commie 64, thanks to my dad’s help; he had one for his inventory control at his appliance repair store he started way back in 1983. My favorite games included: The Seven Cities of Gold (hey, I only got as far as Governor General!) and Raid Over Moscow (now why would one be surprised at that one?). But the GEOS graphical user interface came out in 1986 and I immediately got it because of its resemblance to the Mac OS. It actually worked quite well.
I did enjoy working with the Commie 64 for a short while...until my ex separated from me. She gave me the disks and she kept the computer, thinking she would emasculate me because I didn’t have something I enjoyed. No matter; two years later, I got my first Mac. And that’s another story for another time.
