I learned basic on a atari 800 i got for christmas because our bundle included the cartridge. After about 6 months i managed to get my parents to buy me a tape drive so i wouldn't have to retype programs completely out each time. I think my biggest day of my programming life was when i got an advanced book that showed me what gosub was for.
