   I did use an Apple IIE in the US Army in the very early 80's, it was   
   hooked to a laserdisk and was used for mapping purposes running dBase.   
      
   That was my first experience with the dot prompt and I found it   
   fascinating. Are you in the UK? JW as I have never had the privelege of   
   seeing or using a BBC Micro. So it's a 6502 system from your post, so I   
   guess maybe the equivalent of my C-64? Although the 64 could only do   
   software based 80 col (I think). I tried my hand at basic, but never   
   assembler (not yet anyway).   
      
    BW> The BBC is great for other things, though - ==> therefore classic   
    BW> my book :)    
      
   I agree! Sounds like a very interesting system to learn and use! Thanks   
   for educating me! Always a good thing...   
      
   Best regards Bob
