   Yep, I used a Timex Sinclair 1000 with 1K of RAM, before buying the   
   16k expansion. When you have to think about every character, every   
   variable you use, programing takes on a whole different light.   
      
   Later on, I programmed on 32K and 48K Commodores and felt like I could   
   write anything.   
      
      
      
   ... If it isn't broken, I can fix it.
