40 years old today, who'd believe it eh?

We got ours for Christmas 1982. I still remember loading up the Horizons 
cassette for the first time and playing the BASIC breakout game. I think 
the only other game we had was Hungry Horace.

Would be Christmas '82 before I even got a ZX81, and another 18 months 
or so before my brother bought a Spectrum. Thro' the Wall from the 
Horizons tape was the first game I played on it too... had many more 
over the years, but never did own a Horace game.
