I’m so happy that this article mentions Bajtek. It was one of the most important, if not _the_ most important, source of computing knowledge in my early childhood. I was born in 1984, got my first computer – a C64C – in 1991, and my dad procured a heap of past issues of „Bajtek” from previous years. In rural Poland those days, knowledge was hard to come by, so those proved invaluable to me. Not only were there type-in programs and games, like in the German 64er, but most of them were actually accompanied by prose articles that offered clear explanations, background, and trivia. I learned BASIC from Bajtek and a few books. Bajtek literally had a monthly column called „For Preschoolers Only” with a BASIC tutorial in it.
