I got a Tandy TRS-80 in the mid 80s. It probably cost my parents a mint, but I could never get it to do much.

My dad had a TRS-80 too but they were really too much trouble to get much done unless you just wanted to play games or chat on a bulletin board system.
Back then most games were written in BASIC and the code was in plaintext and easily hackable. My brother and I at the time liked to play a game called "Tueday Morning Quarterback" and he was a big Steelers fan. So naturally I hacked it to make sure that whenever the Steelers scored a TD it would be called back for holding.
