    Ah good old assembly, have done a bunch of it over the years. Never ventured Forth! :)

    New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.1 new web site. I know the voices in my head are not real but damn they come up with some good ideas!

    IIRC you had to write your own assembler - the BBC Micros had it built in you just put your assembly code between "[" & "]" :~

    KeithBarrow.net[^] - It might not be very good, but at least it is free!

      Actually, they're still available.

            Mine (48k) cost £129.99, though the prices had dropped by then. The 16k version retailed for £99.99, but few games worked. According to this[^] ,they started off at £125 and £175 respectively.

            Ahh fun! I remember having to memory upgrades for a couple of friends who had the 16K version to 48K, the sockets were there but no chips. I did do a mod for the key board to one of them as well! Oh those were the days!:thumbsup:

              Forth and Z80 assembly, at least, I used them in the 80's.

                Forth and assembler on a Jupiter Ace - now that's taking me back literally to where I started playing with computers.

                  The most important machine in computing history[^] Whats remarkable is the selling price now is cheaper than the selling price then, even ignoring inflation. I might be showing my vintage here.....

                  The only time I saw the original in stores, it was on clearance for $50. I'm tempted to buy one of these new ones, but the wife freaked out last night when she found out I'd just bought another used computer -- an HP Itanium server to complete my VAX-Alpha-Itanium museum. :cool:

                    It's the first level of Manic Miner. [edit] I just checked and the version I have still runs on Win10 :cool:
