@geekmaster:
I'm always game to hear first-hand accounts of the days before I was using computers, but for the record.. to be absolutely clear, I wasn't in any way trying to: one-up you / criticize you / get style points / make it seem like I knew more than you. I heard you when you said you just didn't feel like looking it up, but it was simple for me to share (aside from python, which I'm learning, BASH is my only programming expertise).
Re the apple-2/3 story: That is wild. I know Apple HAS played and will continue to play an important role in terms of development/innovation of computers, but ... bleh, none of their products have ever really sat right with me. I'm sure glad we have choices.
