It's funny guys.
My first "computer game" experience;
My dad brought a state of the art HP calculator home from work. This thing could read (and write) programs on small, like 10mmx40mm mag strips. you would feed the strip into a slot in one side and little rubberized feed wheels would spin up and spit it through and out the other side.
One of the program strips included when the unit was delivered was a "moon lander" game. It was turn based. It would briefly display your speed, range to the surface, and remaining fuel, then you would be prompted for a fuel burn input.
Yes, I did land it that night.
Yes...I am old.
Ha! That is epic! My father brought home a "talking typewriter" and a "talking page" from Responsive Environments Corp in early 1970.....something.
My dad taught me how to use a slide rule.
Speaking of dad, he used to be an awesome hockey player and I remember him coming home one night telling us that he got five goals in one game.
I said, "Wow! Can I see them?!" and he said,
"Well, you can't see them..." so I said
"Why not?"
Fast forward to 2013 on a visit to my dad and me saying,
"Hey dad! I just bought some Bitcoins!" and he said,
"What are Bitcoins?" and I said,
"It's a new form of digital currency!" to which he replied,
"Wow! Can I see them?" so I said,
"Well, you can't see them..." and he said,
"Why not?"
Guess I'm a chip off the old block.
