Apple didn't used to be that way but the bigger the company got, the worse
it became.  Once they quit using the Motorola 68000 CPU, I lost interest.

My first computer with color was, interestingly enough, a TRS-80 Color
Computer 2.  That was the computer I taught myself BASIC on.  I rarely use
BASIC now, instead preferring Pascal, BASH scripting, or REXX scripts, but I
can still whip out a program if needed.

I have Microsoft BASIC PDS around here somewhere.
