I gotta comment on the mid 70s thing and how great it is to hear that. I have also been into computers since the late 70s (well and early 80s) although I imagine I got started a little younger than you … like I was 8 and writing basic/ assembly on my various machines back in the day (TRS-80 Model III, Tandy CoCo 2, Coleco Adam, C64). So I’m only mid 50s and I thought I was the old guy around here :) But damn if you don’t give me hope that I can stay like this for many years to come.

Well thanks. I feel fortunate to be alive. My first computer was an Altair. Then the Timex/Sinclair, the TI, then just about one of each until some semblance of base line was established and not 20 companies producing propriety devices. It’s been a wild ride. I’m also a mediocre musician of about 65 years and the technology still blows me away every time I sit down to my DAW and controllers.
Sorry to have taken your ‘OldHead’ status from you. lol
