I was debating whether to get the commadore computer. I bought this horrible Tandy 1000 hx. I think the first game I got for it was f19.
I had to use my TV as a monitor, and I got a modem for it running at a cool 300 baud.

For what I paid for that lousy computer, something like $600, and what $600 will buy today, it is amazing how far computers have come.

About the average age of gamers... I am not sure this poll shows the accuracy since anyone under 30 probably is doing better things than taking polls haha.

Hi all,

I had a Commodore 1000, with the 1571 floppy drive and dot matrix printer. I forget what I paid for it but I sold it for $1000 (Australian of course). Wasn't the first computer I had though, but it was the first one with colour!!! I had a game console before that a 5200 thingy I think, then a mono computer just for writing, haha what a laugh, prolly paid more for that than I did for my current pc.
