However, an historic IBM 5150 & QBasic would be pretty interesting too!
And it might actually work: at HOPE there were problems, which Jon attributed to a timing issue, because we used a Compaq 386 (in Network General Sniffer clothes) instead of the recommended slower IBM PC.
This short tutorial shows how to add machine code to QBasic. You can load the code bytes into a string and call it (section 3) Assuming someone can write the code bytes, you definitely can do anything you might need that way. http://www.petesqbsite.com/sections/tutorials/tutorials/asm.txt Now I'm really curious what that example does... guess I'll have to fire up the 5150.
