My first system was a mighty Timex Sinclair with the high speed of a
whopping 4k. I used a pencil to type on it. I still have it. Then I went to
a Radio Shack Tandy. The TRS-80 Micro Computer System. Don't remember the
speed on it. Then to the Commodore Pet, 64, 1200 and then the Amiga 2000.
Now the PC. I run a dual boot. Linux Mint on one end and win 10 on the of
the other. Love that Linux.
