  1. The first computer I saw and used was a Texas Instruments 'Intelligent Terminal' around early 1982. I was working in seismic oil search and was earmarked to be sent to the States to train as a systems engineer. However, I had lied about my age when I got the job. I was only 17, and the minimum age for the job was 18. So I had to make excuses as to why I couldn't travel. Man, what a missed opportunity. Back then I was earning about 100 bucks a day in the field, 5 times my friend's incomes. The system engineers were making 700 a day.
