# We had 2 computers at school when I left
and there was no class teaching anything about them. We had to join the 'computer club' Which comprised of me, 4 mates and an odd Russian girl plus the teacher who bought our computers which were...
wait for it...

Commodore Pet 4s

# We had PETs at school
They were fucking heavy. We had to carry them from the computer lab to the computer classroom 'cos the teacher was a fat lazy cunt who taught us nothing about computers and failed us all cos we programmed our shit programs in BASIC on ZX Spectrums and C64s.

But I'm not bitter.

I'm probably a bit older than you and computers were just some odd calculator back then. What it did do was introduce me to BASIC and also to Commodore and so my lifelong love affair with all things AMIGA.
