I am ecstatic to see Pete's QB Site on HN, it was both a large part of my childhood and responsible for my introduction to programming. Lots of very fond memories there, along with Ted Felix's QBASIC programming tutorial[0].
Pete's site is a fantastic resource and you can easily lose hours perusing everything that is archived there.

- petercooper 6y agoIf we're doing old 90s programming resources that we have fond memories of, does anyone else remember x2ftp.oulu.fi and their /pub/msdos/programming folder? Full of gold and a frequent haunt for me :-) It seems to have been archived too: http://ftp.lanet.lv/ftp/mirror/x2ftp/msdos/programming/ http://ftp.lanet.lv/ftp/mirror/x2ftp/msdos/programming/ The PC Game Programmer's Encyclopedia (PCGPE) was something I used to read and update religiously at the time, and there was a similar archive of BASIC-specific stuff whose name I forget now..
