I vaguely recall Clipper...although we never used it. My first compiler was Pixie - and the first script I wrote was a basic math calculator, lol.

Late 80s - our first machine was a PC-XT with 640k RAM and a 20mb HD. Monochrome CRT. GWBasic with a custom GUI we designed ourselves. I still remember WordPerfect for DOS, we also had dbIII, lotus1-2-3. All that great stuff on 5.25" dyson floppies.

Later we were first kids on the block with a 4-color Sperry CRT monitor. Man, what a Cadillac that was, lol. The 1200baud internal Zoltrix modem card was still about a foot long on the motherboard. Every year we upgraded...2400, 9600, 14.4, 28.8, 33.6.
