    Default How about an 80's bedroom, complete with "state of the art" computer...

    Here is my room back in 1987. As you can see, I was killing the Commodore 64c with color monitor and 1541c II floppy disk drive. The computer held a whopping 64kb of RAM and 320X200 graphic mode. Ran a GEOS OS and ran at .985mhz. IM-ing was fun back then as it took about 2-3 minutes for the Instant to be Instant, lolol. Sorry for the blur, but due to trademark regulations, I can't show my face without written permission from myself. Later, QD.

    LOAD *,8,1 seems to ring a bell to me. Or something to that effect. as young as I was, i remember typing it into the keyboard to get my games to play and saying it aloud
