Either I bought one of those, or someone bought one for me, when I was
younger. Problem was that the book was for "PC" BASIC and all we had was a TI99. ;) I did also receive a TI99 programming book that, IIRC, was a collection of several programs from 99er magazine. I did type some of
those in and learned a few things.
Several years later we got an XT. For whatever reason, it never really
dawned on me to get that PC BASIC book out and play with it. Oddly enough,
I still have that book here somewhere. I think I have the TI one, too! ;)
