product .... not even a calculator.

That he did and I'm grateful for it. He had a much bigger impact in the UK than in the US but I did own a ZX81 and a T/S 1000--which I still have with a 16K RAM cartridge and the original owner's manual--that got me started. The computer that I started actively programming on was my CoCo 2.

I guess it depends on where you lived and your circumstances...

Back then I would have liked to have a Vic-20 with its colours, sound and great keyboard, but Commodore computers were expensive over here (I was a teenager with a limited budget).

Indeed!
