   Same here: first computer, a Vic20. Never had a floppy drive for it - typed in   
   BASIC programs from magazines, such as BYTE, and occassionally tried to save   
   to a tape drive - usually unsuccessfully. But it begat a couple of Apple IIs   
   and a Timex Sinclair which eventually begat a PC-XT clone and well.. you know   
   where that story goes.
