Hello everyone

[T_J]

I’m T_J from Missouri. Right this second I have no W10 problems. I’ve used a lot of computers from the 80s to now at work and home. I once bought a used (~1985) dual 5.25” floppy drive computer (from labx dot com); programs on one floppy and data on second floppy; plus could write BASIC programs to calculate 'stuff'. I'm no millennial.

Welcome to the fun, T.J.

Here is the ~1985 computer, monitor, and printer, I mentioned above. They don't make them like they used to.

You stirred me. Since my last reply, I have found and downloaded an update for the PC. It has Boulderdash and a variation "Rocks and diamonds" .. See you much later!
