I'm trying to date when we were first playing with this, but that was a messy period in my life and it is hard to put it all in chronological order. But I do know I had a driving license so it must have been around 87 or 88. The thing that I remember most clearly is that the images we made had a massive blank area where the chip was split into two halves with a bunch of stuff in the middle.
Even earlier than that. The cromemco camera and similar hobbyist projects dated from the mid-70s.
