It&#39;s a rare find to see someone else that has a similar story. I still have the GW-BASIC reference manual (although I confess I haven&#39;t opened it in years). Kudos on moving to x86 assembler. I didn&#39;t get into assembly until college, but I always enjoyed how fast everything was and how big memory seemed back then (e.g. 512 bytes of SRAM was often enough).Jeff Moserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16074905903060665396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800934446457898793.post-61003685433619788502009-07-11T21:25:35.186-04:002009-07-11T21:25:35.186-04:00Stumbled onto your blog when I was looking for techniques to combine JS/CSS files.<br /><br />Our early path are very similar: GW-BASIC, QB4.5, then Delphi!<br /><br />I&#39;m surprised you still use GW-BASIC on a 386. I ran it and QB4.5 on a 8088...<br /><br />Like you, I had a moment when I thought I had learnt everything there is to computing. That was when I finished reading the GW-BASIC reference manual from cover-to-cover, trying to soak in every keyword and function.<br /><br />I thought GW-BASIC could do everything, just that it was slower and had a 64 kB limitation. (I picked up x86 asm soon after.)nhyonehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07856759147801825744noreply@blogger.com
