Fun but I never did anything serious with it

So much awesomeness.

I was in 1st grade at Cherry Crest Elementary School and learned HyperCard/HyperTalk through trial and error on a monochrome Mac Classic.

Did a Mac virus documentation stack in it that Apple UK picked up to distribute - never did hear if they actually got it out to anyone. First taste of object-oriented programming, and a great development platform. Would love to see something like it come to the iPad.

My first exposure to programming was discovering "authoring mode" in HyperCard on my school's one Mac.

HyperCard was the tool that originally showed me how much fun programming could be.
