If I recall, those keys had the characters injection molded, so there was no way to wear them out.

actually, the display is a bit dim (even with new batteries) and i've super-glued the front panel back a few times.

I cannot remember anything about the very first, though I do remember the program/game where you would talk into the microphone and a "parrot" would repeat what you said. That and some alphabet game. The second was a Compaq with 2 gb hd and was awesome.

I still have the DOS game I.M.MEEN on cd.

Go Team Atari! I learned so much from debugging the programs and games I typed from program listings in Compute!, Antic and Analog. I remember sitting in front of our General Electric family TV (14" or something like that) hours on end trying to find that one typo that was causing the problems. Ah, the days when gameplay was king...

Commodore all the way: Vic-20 with the tape drive and 4k(?) ram, then C-64 with the 1541 floppy, then an Amiga 1000 with a 10 or 20mb(?) hd.
