First computer I ever had was a ZX Spectrum. To load a game you had to connect your tape recorder to it, wait half an hour and if you were very very lucky and finally got the game to load you got to play Jet Set Willy State of the art game playing of the era.

I had one of these, the first batch of this type was the ZX81 with rubber keys, then the 64k which i had with seperate tape player, the 128k had built in tape players.
I hated it when a big game would take 10 mins to load then crash at the last minute.

I liked bomb jack and the track and field one (cant remember the name).
I also played sabotuer a lot also.

Good times
