All software has a learning curve usually proportional to its capabilities and unique features. Pointing with a mouse is in no way easier than tapping a key.
... oh, yea!

That made my day.
Brings a tear to my eye of using an "out" and peek and poke commands to flip a relay coil musically in my first computer.
Making BAD racket using the tape relay, got me a copy of this from the parental units. Leo Christopherson is/ was a genius.

Dancing Demon was programmable.
First time I ever saw microprocessor music was a tour of Dad's job, where a 8080 was banging out When the Saints Go Marching it.
Still neither holds a candle to that C64 in the video.

Qui habet Christos, habet Vitam!
I should have rented the space under my name for advertising.
When I still could have...
When I was in high school around 1981 or so, we had a computer lab with three Apple ][s .
I was deep into software trading back then, and we had a program called HOT APPLES that made the floppy drive simulate (some sort of) sex.
As a teenage boy, this was phenomenally hilarious.
I'm sure I have it here somewhere on a 5.25" floppy. Not that (a) anything can read it these days (other than an Apple ][), and (2) if the magnetic image is intact.
When I was a senior in high school, in 82 83 I (and dchammonds on this forum) were the only people in the whole school system (including teachers and administrators) who actually owned a computer. I brought my ZX81 into physics class and demonstrated it. I was asked to be the student who would help them decide what computer to buy for the school for the year after I would graduate. It was an Apple IIe.

... around this time too, I was starting with "serious" programming (after some time gaming) with my Commodore computers (VC20 with datasette, C-64 with floppy, "parallelized" per user-port-cable and modified firmwares) ... and my old school had still a monochrome Commodore PET for computer class

... if someone is still (or again) interested in such "vintage" computers like a C-64 -- there are some recent projects around the user-port with cartridges/modules containing more than enough flash-RAM, SSD, I/O's, USB- or WLAN-connection or other more "modern" stuff
