My Idea to create a Virtual Pinball Machine
So it all started growing up and enjoying pinball. I was very lucky to have an arcade within bike riding distance growing up in Jacksonville and would spend many hours playing pinball after school, that along with creating my own BBS on my TRS80 computer.
I was also very fortunate that one day my Dad bought a real pinball machine home. I remember it clearly, it was called Stop & Go and was a electro-mechanical machine. Of course back then I would use tape to block the exit lanes since it was extremely hard keeping the ball in play!
That pinball machine and eventually programming on an Apple II let me to eventually create my first virtual pinball machine.
A great deal!
There was one other event and machine that helped get me when I am today. Back in the early 2000s I was out to lunch with my family at a local restaurant called and owned by Pete Rose. ....
