Btw, there was on-calc assembly before Zshell, yess sir ! On the HP-48 SX ! Incidentally, Zshell is also the programme that made me switch from HP to TI...

Do you know what FARGO is?

That is great that the majority knows what ZShell is, but few people know the advent of Fargo, the _actual_ coming of the 85, and the 92. I remembered i had my ti85 reserved at 'Staples' (i think) and i was only 8! lol. NEC-basic was my first lang, then english! j/k

but seriously, it is important and WONDERFUL that we have newbies who can look and see what we have uncovered and tripped over. Yet, in the computer world, who knows about CP/M? Vax? or even the _Amiga_???? well, the fact that we do not always look back is not neccessarily a atrocity, but more of a fact, that is essentially inevitable.

That's pretty sad that over 100 people don't know what ZShell is. ZShell was what got me started on TI gaming. Many other people as well. Of course, I eventually updated to Usgard and then I bought a TI-86, so now Z-Shell is just a fond memory.

Well not all of us started with an 85. I started w/ an 82. Went up to an 83. Then I got my 86. No 85 in between. I'll be getting an 89 this summer.

I didn't start on an 85 either. When I got my first calc, the 82, CrASH was already out. Then I jumped straight to the 89 (mostly for the mem, but now i find the algebraic manipulation extremely useful) and got Doors os II. I know my friend started on an 83 with SOS and jumped to the 89 when he saw how cool mine was (he sold his 83 and a tazer to his brother to get it).. so not all that many people know about the 85.. but i think a lot of people still know what it is, if they read some of the literature out there (like i have). It certainly is venerable, however.. if it was not invented, i'd be running BASIC progs on this 89... Ugh. can't even think about that. :P
