    Dung Beetles, Karateka, Night Driver and Transylvania on the Apple 2. Moon Patrol and Aztec Challenge on the C64. Flood, Night Hunter, Monkey Island, Technocop on Amiga. Being blown away with how much of an upgrade the Amiga Mortal Kombat was over the Master System version.

    First DOS PC with dial-up. FastTracker2, using a terminal ftp finding MOD files from old Amiga favourites, FAQs, and Doom patches. BBSes, Legend of the Red Dragon and Planets: The Exploration Of Space. Writing Web 1.0 HTML pages and hacky QBasic programs for anything and everything. Fossil drivers and WinSock.
