BASIC is the work of the Devil. I should know, I cut my teeth on the wretched language twenty years ago. Wrote the usual assortment of text-based stuff, as well as a version of Frogger (remember that?) that would have been quite good if the hardware had been even remotely up to running it.
I'm 33 years of age. There, safely back on-topic.
