Or the C64 might be a good choice too. Jumping into "no-framebuffer/racing-the-beam" 6502 programming on the Atari 2600 for the uninitiated is just ... cruel.

- NikkiA 7y agoI'd recommend the BBC Micro, since we're not talking about the 1980s and geographical limitations of the market, the BBC has a nice basic that includes a built-in assembler, has a text UI that is more pleasant on the eyes than most 8bits, has the sideways rom system to make it possible to add a debugger and other niceties, and has a simple easy-to-understand disk filing system.
