    Yep, volume 3, issue 6, June 1985! My first article ever and a tad over $1,000 for two hours worth of work.

    Too bad mags don't pay like they used to.

    By chance do you have a copy of this article? If you do I'd like to read it. I'm a geek by choice

    Nope, my parents have it in their possession and they're in NYC, not that close to me

    PM me and I'll let you know the name of the article. It's actually a game I wrote based on Pengo.

    Hey K, that's really cool! I'm a latecomer as far as buying my first computer (though I used them since 1980 or so). It was a Commodore with a whomping huge 20MB hard drive and 640Kb of RAM. Funny thing is, it cost as much then (more, if you account for inflation) as my Dell xps410, lol.

    I know, E! So many people nowadays complain about the cost of computers, but computers were actually pretty expensive back then. I'm glad I got into technology when I was a kid. It just made my life a lot easier.
