Basic

I've had my TI-85 since 1993... so it's pretty old. I remember when the TI-92 came out in 1995, it was awesome but just too pricey. Sadly I believe that both the TI-85 and 92 have been discontinued. Ah well.


But for some good info:

i think TI-82's have been discontinued as well. i think the software and graphlink stuff have, as well

hmm, i'm not sure about the graphlink,unless you mean the black and gray one, cuase the usb one is the wave of the future
i don't think 92 is out becuase it a little spec of the Voyager(?) 2000 and they always have to choice for TI types (83,83+,83SE)(84,84SE)(92,2000)

silly goose, i mean the graphlink equipment and software that was for the TI-82's

82? ppl have those ?

how could anyone not LOVE basic?

line numbers, REM statements (remark!), using ? for print, subroutines instead of functions (to this day I wonder why people who can grasp subroutines can't grasp functions), etc.

the first serious program i had to write - at line number increments of 10 (before i filled in all the stuff i forgot) - went to 11,000. all that and i still couldn't read or write the *&^% files correctly.

BASIC was the first computer language I learned, but I've sence forgotten most of the synatx. I learned it when I was about 10 (a full 5 years ago) and I still remember the awesome images I created with those block pixels and endless loops:

No idea if this is what it would look like but I too went in 10s (don't remember if you have too):

You know... this has to be the dumbest spam attempt I've ever seen. I mean seriously, who comes to a site with the intent to spam and then spams a thread in the Archive? Possibly the worst spam attempt ever.
