			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In my geeky computer history, I owned an Amiga 500. My first experience with a point and click user interface for a computer was GEOS on a Commodore 64. The Amiga was light years ahead of GEOS, and it seemed light years ahead of all other computers I had used then. Unfortunately, the time I had with my Amiga 500 was very short. When the computer died a strange death, I&#8217;m not sure why it never dawned on me that it may have been a warranty repair. So, instead of trying to get a repair, I moved on—completely frustrated.</p>
<p>During the time that I had my Amiga 500, I grew attached to a few select games. One of them, Sword of Sodan, holds a special place in my memories as having the silliest sounds effects ever. My friend Jeremy Kaye and I used to play this game often, and we would laugh continuously at the enemy death sounds in level 4. Looking at the game today, it seems incredibly lame, but it was pretty amazing for a home computer in 1989.</p>

<p>Among the few video games that Noah and I play is Disney/Pixar Cars. It is fun to drive around Radiator Springs and surrounding area; seeing Cars characters out driving around and explore locations that were in the movie. Noah gets very excited when he finds hidden places, and there are plenty of secrets to find in the game. He also enjoys smashing into buildings, other cars and falling off cliffs.</p>
<p>So, all you drivers out there…watch out! Noah is behind the wheel now!</p>
