I had an 800. Had the cassette tape media drive and some game for it, but could never get it working.

Also had that awful ET game.

I recall writing a screensaver in basic and letting it run overnight.

The 800 was the better machine but god damn the 400 is so sexy ๐Ÿฅต

The idea of writing anything on its awful membrane keyboard is inconceivable though ๐Ÿ˜…

Hey, do you want like 400,000 more copies of E.T? They're just sitting there. In some landfill.
