How many people remember the first time they saw Pong? I was a kid eating with my family at a pizza joint when I was some commotion over in the corner. People were lining up to stand in front of this TV thing, I had to get a better look. They didn't really get to me until Asteroids came out. Then, many dollars in quarters later, I was hooked! In fact, I did a paper when I was a sophomore in high school on video games. My first years spending with a home computer was usually trying to hack into a program to see how it worked. Many years later, I was talking about my system to a geek at work who was shocked and appalled that I was running this killer system and didn't have any games on it. I guess life moves on but I'm going to check out this for old time sake!
