Re: A86: Re: Learning ASM
Now David, that wouldn't happen to be a selfless plug, now would it? I seem to know of many other sites that are, in my opinion, as good as, or better than the stuff you all have. There are many sites that can teach you to program, even though your all's is a very good one.
