First PC experience

Ah, the old Trash-80, my first experience with a personal computer. Loved the 8" floppy and having to wait 4 hours (might be a slight exaggeration) for it to crunch numbers on my college HVAC project. The good news was I had time to go back to the dorm, get a six-pack, and return before it finished running.
