wow forgot all about the Tandy, nuf said there
I also went down the Amiga path, loved my 500. always wanted a 1200 but never
happened (appart from in winUAE) lol.
 DD> ... Amiga made it possible. Commodore made it dead.

some very bad business choices by Commodore..the 600 for eg.
my first BBS was on my 500 running 4dBBS then Transamiga in the hay day.

I did enjoy doing a bit of Z80 machine code tho, wrote a little security prog
for the +3 floppies that resided in the boot sector.
those were the days.

... A PC a day keeps the Apple away!
