I was so bad at it

I had one of those as a child. I used to play f19 stealth fighter, those sierra adventure games like leisure suit larry and space quest 1 + 2. I had a few other games that booted from disk. Also had strip poker written in gwbasic, i was too young to understand poker but i still managed to hack the game to show all the nude women in shitty cga.
