Back when I was but a young geek, I would sit in my bedroom and type source code from a computer magazine (I forget the name) into my VIC-20 computer. I would spend multiple hours doing this, and at the end of it all I would be able to play tic-tac-toe.
Good times, good times......
Do you remember that The Shatner used to do ads for the VIC-20? See the video below:
