    @jmessager @mike @SamuraiSakura a mouse? What is it even? You don't need anything like that in TurboPascal

      @mike @jmessager @SamuraiSakura I didn't *have* that because the floppy didn't belong to me. But I had fun using it.

        @bonkers I think I got my copy as "payment" for fixing someone else's computer. They'd gotten it with their computer and didn't know what it was, so they asked me if I wanted it. Cheaper than paying me in real money I guess.

          Pretty sure the first PC mouse I used had a serial connection...

              @82mhz Me too. This was from the late 80s IBM PS/2 computer and others later on. This was my first computer in school when they decided to get all new computers for computer and accounting class and other classes.

                @SamuraiSakura Even older. The ones on my first computer were in black and white.

                    @SamuraiSakura I use to have the luxury of having two 5.25" drives.
