    I thought

    this was going to be about the R - tape loading error and adjusting the volume and azimuth angle of your tape head.

    Most folk won't know what I'm on abart here. Others will feel my pain.

    I used to go outside and kick the football against next doors garage, then come back in half hour later and it still hadn't loaded.

    Re: I thought

    Believe it or not I built my own cassette interface back in those days (I'm an electronic engineer by trade) and it worked at 4800 baud. 4800 baud!

    Now we've got 100Gb Ethernet there's never any time to make coffee, cook a meal or play footy. Sad.

    I remember editing my friends glider rider loading screen with obscene words and the like. Then recording over that initial loading screen before giving it back to him. Oh the fun we had!!!
