Hello. My name is Duke and I’m addicted to video games.

How It All Began

In some ways, I blame my father. One of my earliest Christmas memories is of us all retreating into the office in the back of the house, where the Timex Sinclair had been pitifully serving as less of a computer and more of an advanced calculator (programs on the Sinclair were actually run from a standard audiocassette player). There, on the desk, was a brand new, shining Apple //e. (Okay, it wasn’t actually shining. But in my memory it has a child-of-Bethlehem glow around it.)
