no such thing Faith. We are all learners, whatever the date on our birth cert.
I have just passed 70 birthday, I still feel as young as 90!!!!
When we entered the 'computer age', invented by the brits, I started by writing software on the sinclair ZX81 for my son. He is now 43 and running an IT dept for the Military abroad. Then I began building my own pcs after being ripped off for £800 for a 180mb HDD 8MB pc in the 90s. !!! Win 3.1 and 3.11 barely fitted on the HDD!
About 15 years ago I gave up building my own and had pc's built to order; actually cheaper and better.
When I got my ZX81, I upgraded from 1k to 2K. Its still in the attic...
I bought the ZX-81 1k, not the Timex one, mail order for $99.95 $5 shipping. Later bought the 16K ram pack.
My ZX-81 let out the blue smoke, but someone I know gave me his complete set up.
