Life was difficult for Roger Dymond as he learned to live with Asperger syndrome. Then came the home computer era of the 1980s and it opened up a whole new world of possibilities for Roger. Join me as I learn about this game programming pioneer ZX Spectrum who, with the help of his parents, started his own mail order game business. Please share this video as all ad money received from this video will be donated to the following charities on behalf of Roger:
