Didn't even do that. I had a Model 1 long before the school had a 
computer. I think I'd even hand-wired my own Z80 system before I used a 
school computer. Somehow typing in BASIC programs was less interesting 
than doing a bit of interfacing or writing machine code (both of which 
were forbidden on the school machines!).
