Dang! Someone who used a Coco AND OS-9! Multi-user felt like it was technically superior to just about any OTHER home system at the time. Even though the graphics were so, so. The sound was not nearly as good. It was 'just as good as a Mac, and cheaper too!' That is until I got myself a Mac. Whoo hoo, those were the days.
It seems like programming was ubiquitous in early computers and then most 'programming' was removed during the DOS days of PCs and now even to XP. That's what I think was lacking until the web recreated the ability to program in some way. The usefulness of computers were lost when a compiler cost lots of cash for someone to just experiment and find out if they liked programming.
