PC - Your first computer - View Post

My first computer was a Radio Shack TRS-80 Color Computer 2.  Favorite games were Dungeons of Daggorath and Starblaze.

A company called Tom Mix software used to make clone games for the system, something I doubt anyone could get away with these days, this was my favorite from them:

I used to greatly look forward to getting this related magazine in the mail:

and this adventure game newsletter:

My 2nd computer was a Commodore 64.  (I LOVED playing Pool of Radiance and Curse of the Azure Bonds on that).

My first IBM compatible PC was a white box 486/66.  I miss the "Turbo" button, lol!

I did also use 286 and 386 equipment though later to run PCBoard (a dial-up BBS software).
