It's all a matter of having a bit of imagination. I don't need an
extreme graphical interface and a Power processor to play Blackjack. I
enjoy the game, not the graphics.
I don't have a functional computer at the moment. If I want to play,
it'll be at a cafe or a friend's house.
That aside, I just finished making a browser (first year comp. science
project), and the fact that I'd been making games on the TI-92 (playing
with the graphic interface, coordinates etc.) helped me a great deal.
