Vic 20

I had a Vic 20 once and wrote in basic and assembler on that machine. I thought the tape recorder was too expensive so I made my own out of a panasonic tape recorder and a bread board I put together. I wrote llog book programs, Amtor programs and Continental Code trainers on the Vic 20. It was a fun machine and very fast too.
