I loved Turbo Pascal, mainly because it was a nice syntax around the asm {} tags allowing me to avoiding writing applications in pure assembler. By wrapping the bare-metal bits with a nice class syntax, it made it easier to reuse stuff. Turbo-C was where I learned C, and it was a great fast development environment with rapid feedback cycles. Then I started using Microsoft C/C++ (which was purely command-line driven) and that's when things changed. :( The 6502 was a fun chip at the time, certainly reminds me of a few things. Glad to have you as part of LT! Welcome!

Your presence definitely raise the stature of Los Techies. Jimmy Bogard may actually have to start wearing pants, ha! Great to have you, Gabriel.
