Basic was the first language I learned.. Back when I was a youngin I was given a Commodore Vic 20 computer. I taught myself basic and wrote my first big program...
A space invaders clone.. Much Later on when XT's came out, they started teaching basic on the XT at highschool.. the XT's we had were monocrome, had no hard drive and two 5 1/4 floppies. They had a great star trek game though, you were an O (the enterprise) and you had to enter co-ordinates to blow up the X's, (klingons). I wasted alot of time playing that back then... Big diff from what kids are used to nowdays though.. regards Franki http://htmlfixit.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Carroll Grigsby Sent: Saturday, 19 July 2003 10:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] [OT] US propose jail for KaZaA users.

I never learned the language myself, but I had a buddy that did. It turned him into a genuine fanatic -- worse than the Hare Krishna kids in airports. It also made a lot of money for him developing software for programming NC machines that would run on the original IBM 5100 desktop computer (circa 1975). He's still doing that part time. -- cmg
