    LOLz... Reminds me of all the nine year olds that more "text talk", "7eet speech", whatever, than I ever hope to. Now, know that I have been "texting online" since 1200 baud modems and BBS', lol; long before the internet as we know it today.

    Good Lord, I don't recall. Truly, I was just a kid then. It WAS on a Commador 64, though, lol. We didn't have those nicer Amiga 500s.

    It lets me know I'm getting old when I can understand that...it takes me back to the days of the thousands of lines of code we would input to run a text only turn based Star Trek program in our Leading Edge PC...the good ol' days. I played the original Chessmaster on that comp...back when floppy discs were actually floppy...

    Those original 'puters had no hard drive, lol. Just a lil bit of RAM: 64, 128, 250, 500... Less than your little brother's Casio watch has, now-a-days. Only removable media: tape, 5&1/4 floppies and "cartridges"...

    Back in the day, programming was a true art; being able to squeeze as much code into such little space.
