The Altair 8800 was fun. The switches are for the data address and the machine code instruction. You'd toggle in the address and the machine code and then toggle a write switch to write the instruction to memory. You'd do that for each machine code instruction to write the entire program and then run it. You could save a program out to a gigantic 8" floppy disk. There was a point that I could write entire programs in machine code. Assembly language was for sissy's!

What was alot worse than blowing into your cartridges on the SNES was when you stuck your copy of F-16 fighter pilot cassette tape in your commodore 64 (never could afford the disk drive) typed "load" only to find than someone had recorded the sunday top 40 chart off the radio over your game!
