It always feels a bit like lost magic. But at the same time, it's also something that was only enabled by the very high determinism of these old home systems. The design relies on having fixed RAM locations, no multiprocessing, etc.

Incredible to find out that typing the paper program would not have worked, though. And in such a disappointing way no less.
