For the Easter long weekend I got back home, and one of the things I did there was head down to the family basement to search for an old launch pad for flying model rockets. That pad didn’t turn up at once, and I got distracted on spotting boxes of material from the days when our family computers came from Radio Shack. One item I extracted from a box was a computer catalogue with the Tandy 2000 on the cover. With an ambiguous thought or two about that turning point between “doing things their own variety of ways” and “following Microsoft’s lead with ever-increasing devotion,” I turned to the pages for the less expensive machine we’d had at the time, the Color Computer.
A peculiar sight )
