That is pretty cool, I am traveling without laptop but I just tried it on an iPad. My first computer was a PDP-8 single board that I had to program in octal (but I wrote an assembler on my company’s Dec-10, so slightly civilized). Later I bought serial number 71 Apple II and loved the built in basic. Older HN readers might have run across my open source Land of the Dwarf adventure game, and I wrote the shitty little chess program Apple distributed on their demo cassette in Woz’s Basic. So, BBC Basic just made me feel nostalgic.
