              I was talking to my dad not too long ago and he still has a Vic 20 that he used to pull pictures from his ham radio that were transmitted by Voyager as it passed by Saturn, I think. Might be Jupiter.

                Same answer to one of your other questions...Visual Basic 6 :sigh: followed shortly after by VB.Net. Then I learned C++ and never touched Basic again!

                            My first languages were Fortran II and IBM 1620 machine (NOT assembler - machine [purely numeric]) language, in 1968.

                                On the C64, I had basic, but then had to write some routines in pure machine code because I did not have a compiler. Then I bought C++ for it.

                                        I used Basic on a printer terminal which needed number, and FORTRAN IV with punch cards. They were a real pain. Extensively used Assembly language on a computer called Sigma 9, which had an instruction set similar to the IBM 360. Then FORTRAN 77.

                                          Apple Basic on an Apple II+. A year later, Fortran on punch cards. Two years later, Z-80 and 6502 assembly. (Around that time, there was a cool "Basic" for the Apple II which was really a macro assembler. Don't remember the name.)
