UPDATE FROM 11/14/2014: As I reposted this I was pleased to see that all the videos were still intact. Yay, YouTube museum! I also have to admit that since I posted these I actually found an Intellivision on eBay and had to buy it. My 12-year old was not very impressed… but I had fun! I ended up having to get an old VCR at GoodWill to connect it into the TV.
Valerie Skinner commented that she’s run across a lot of technical people who got their start on the Commodore 64. I was one of them!
I did some quick digging and thought I’d share a few blasts from the past about the good ol’ days of computing.
