How did you get into Apple II computing?

In 1984 I bought an Apple ][+ Clone with 48KB, later 64KB and startet learning Applesoft and later 6502 hacking.
I spent time with searching and programming cheats for the common games, and programmed a Text-System in Applesoft (!). I put so many functions in it, that it was so big (and slow) that I could only type in 2 pages, then my Apple was out of RAM. Then Appleworks came out, and I had no need to optimize my Program with Assembler Routines.
I upgraded my Apple with an 68000 CPU Card (selfmade), but I got it only one time to work :-(
Today I still have my Apple ][+ but lots of my programs are lost because of the quality of my Disks :-(

Sorry for my poor english.
