I still have 2 x TRS-80 Model 1's, and 1 TRS-80 Model 4, with 2 cassette drives, an Expansion Interface, a couple of floppy drives and a 300 baud modem. Nothing works well anymore sadly, but I'll never give this up.

And yes you're right - the computers of this era did nothing at all unless you typed in the programs, which was freaking awesome. I loved it.

Best game ever: "Trek 79", or any of its variations. You "flew" the Starship Enterprise to coordinates like 7,5, sector 5,5, hoping to not hit a sun on the way. All the "graphics" were ascii characters like E for Enterprise, K for Klingon, etc, and that was it. Fucking LOVED it.
