Australia’s Greatest Computer? The MicroBee Story

This was the first computer I ever used. They had one in the library at my primary school, and I used it when I was in the 4th and 5th grade. I used to go to the library at recess so I could start loading a program from tape which would then be available for me to use when I came back at lunch time. I have very hazy recollection of what I did with this computer. Perhaps the only thing was playing a version of Donkey Kong. I didn’t know how and never learned how to program it.
