How very dare you (is a tired, over-rated and overused catchphrase) !!!

Just use the Internet to sort it out.
Actually, dont. The internet is just a bunch of hardware and networking protocols. Use the World Wide Web.

All I had in 1984 was an Apple ][e. I think I played every Infocom game ever made.

Is that one of the old bits of Apple hardware that are a bit of a collector's item now?

I have just done an enormous LOL.

Laughing out loud

I hope you clear it up.

Actually, doesn't it need an END on the, um, end?

EDIT

Hang on, no, it doesn't have an end. I gotcha. Sorry.

10 PRINT "END"
20 GOTO 30
30 END

END

Minor LOL this time. But still a LOL.

To get any laughs out of BASIC is good enough for me.

I used to get those magazines with pages of programming lines to type in and make games. You'd spend hours entering them, only to discover there was at least one printing error (I used to suspect deliberate bastard foul play) which screwed the whole thing up. Used to spend more time working out where the mistakes were and fixing them, than playing the resultant game.

Kids thesedays, eh...? *tuts*

I doubt it. But I remember that my parents paid almost 2000 1984 dollars for it. That's almost eleventy jillion 2009 dollars.

Eventually they added checksums which made typos less of a problem. My brother and I would spend hours reading the hex digits while the other one typed them out.

These guys made some of my favourite Apple ][ software:

Jeez! It must have had at least 48K RAM for that money!
