No, I am too young for that. But when I was ~16y I discovered the Adam
Osborne books on microprocessors and I found an ad in some magazine for
the 8008. So I started designing my computer on paper, including level
shifters and demultimplexers and whatnot. And of course I tried to write
what you would now call a monitor program. But lacking any background in
either programming or anything beyond simple electronics I (of course)
got nowhere. But you've got to start somwehere :)
