Back around 1982 I bought my son a Commodore 64 for Christmas when he was 12. I remember paying about $200 for it (which would be about $500 in today's money).
Today he is a senior systems engineer for a very large multi-national company.
For someone brought up in the 50's and 60's it has been really amazing watching the growth of computers over the years. My first exposure was to an IBM 360 in 1970, but just on the terminal side of it. To think that today, your cellphone has more computing power than Apollo 11 (which I watched on a 19" black and white TV).
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70161829 I still have this game in a storage locker in NJ. I see someone on e-Bay selling it for $1800.00. . . I was gonna say whoever has retro working computers should see what they go for on ebay. I remember an original Macintosh went for some crazy mount. This got me through many years of school.
