I got an Amstrad PCW handed down to me from my dad as my first PC around the same time.

Booted always with disk 1 and that was Locoscript and learned typing on that thing.

When I discovered there is a second disk that boots you in some dark and hidden alternative mode (read: CP/M) I felt like a hacker.

Hidden inside this cave was the only program the manual mentioned in this section: Logo! I did not know that my PC could display anything except characters and it was. so. amazing. to see self-drawn lines on that thing.
