Re: [LM_NET] Gen: Your first computer

[Darla Grediagin <dgrediagin@BSSD.ORG>]

When I saw the part of programming in Basic, I had to jump in.  Our 
first home computer was a IBM clone 80/88 I think.  I had learned to 
program a year earlier when I was 17 and I programmed a question and 
answer series that gave my phone number if you answered enough correct.

Take off 20 years to have kids and now I want to learn Linux so I can 
work to program OSS programs.

I just watched an old Passwrod Plus program in which the host was 
talking about how wonderful word processors are.
