I thought I'd spend it on the complete Debian Sarge, latest.
All I knew about back then was Commodore Vic 20's & 64's, Apple twoes,
and the Timex/Sinclairs.  I was teaching 6th grade and not making enough
to afford except what the school district bought us.  Except for the
Timexes.  I got fair at writing Sinclair BASIC, except I had a bunch of
added 2 K memories stuck on the back end of the little box.  Can't have
a very big database that way.  30 kids and 2 assignments or tests.
