Saturday and Sunday a super high interest guy came. I think he was about late high school age and visiting from Georgia. He stayed Saturday for hours and was programming BASIC on the Zorba by himself. He asked to borrow a Microsoft BASIC manual so I gave him one from the IBM 5150 and off he went. I don't know what his end product was as I was busy with the repair workshop that day and couldn't stick around. Dennis can fill us in as he was docent that day. On Sunday he came back again and was programming on the TRS-80. He used the TRS-80 Graphics Programming book as a reference and created an etch-a-sketch program. It's quite rare for a visitor to stay for hours like that and sit down and program on these machines. From time to time I will get visitors that are patient enough to sit down, type in a short program and teach them the basics of BASIC programming. ========================================= Jeff Brace Vice President & Board Member Vintage Computer Festival East Show-runner Vintage Computer Federation is a 501c3 charity http://www.vcfed.org/ jeffrey@vcfed.org
