When I wanted to play a computer game when younger I'd turn on the ZX Spectrum, load it
Go have my dinner, come back up after 20 minutes for it have just about finished loading, pressed CH-PINGPOING joystick button and then it would crash and then load it up again for another 20 minutes.

You can pay me to take it.
I should only be given presents.

I'm going to have to decline your offer,
as much as it pains me.

How much?

( WormuIus, Fri 19 Jun 2009, 11:22, archived)

I'm not entirely sure how much it's worth,
so I need to spend some time making sure I don't ask way too much or get ripped off myself, so give me a day or two if you're actually interested.

OK wormy baby,
I'll get back to you later today. A quick look on ebay tells me that's about right.

I used to collects of old consoles

I flogged it all to nerds a few years ago, apart from my mega drive/ mega CD combo, that's not going ANYWHERE

I have an Intellivision but I don't think I could ever part with it,
there was even a modem available for it to download games.
