Ah, those were the days. I learned Assembly on A500. You would just load an image into memory, tell the video card to point to that location and it got shown on the screen.
I recall writing a simple program to extract images from games. After reboot, the game graphics would remain in RAM. Using the program I would change the address with keyboard controls until I got something that looked like an image from game on my screen and then I would save it into a file.
And I got docs for programming it via a friend who had access to some BBS.
Kids these days don't know what they have.
