Trash Eighty with a cassette drive. Swanky.
And thatâs what we did for fun with computers in the 80âs, children. We didnât have no Internet.
I remember playing âStar Trekâ on the computer with the daisy-wheel printer w/the modem on which one had to place a telephone receiver to communicate with the other party.
This was 1978 or '79, Computer Science class that I took when I started high school. I dropped it, as at 14, I just wasnât dedicated enough to care.
If youâd like to try the Star Trek game again, The Classic Super Star Trek Game has the latest version, last updated in 2019(!) Still the same text interface, but no teletype or printer needed now.
Thank you! Also, for the word âteletypeâ, which escaped me.
But I fibbed - I didnât personally actually play it - I watched someone else play it. I wasnât up to handling it then, and Iâm probably not now, lol.
