The Flyers won their first playoff game in 6 years! 3-2 over the Penguins in Pittsburgh.

No, IIRC the jr. high school had one, but I didn't get to use it much. I learned BASIC on a TRS-80, then in high school we got a Commodore 64 at home. At Penn State they had Macs in the computer labs for word processing. I've built & used various Windows & Linux PCs. Today I have a MacBookPro M5 Pro
