In HP ScanJet 3C takes lead on Bohemian Rhapsody

Unhappy

My very first foray into the world of computing was this piece of kit. With it's massive cartridge slot and only 3 cartridges in existence it was cack.

However I took comfort in having to program 14 pages of code to get a tank game that would only fire at the aliens if you solved a math problem first. Playability fail.

Tbh with all the shite thats freely transmitted at the moment why bother with any of them. As a regular traveller to the US (work not choice) and seeing the complete and utter skipful of donkey c**k they peddle on their boxes, to see it coming to the fore over here makes me weep.

Get a library card, get a better job to buy more books, hell download books of mininova and print them...anythings better than boasting you have 5 million channels when not one of them shows anything of any worth.
