as an ex-DECCIE I approve of this thread. Still doing VMS sysadmin, believe it or not.

WRITE SYS$OUTPUT "Hello World"

Even better, from the debugger, you look at function arguments using:

e/i .ap

I wonder how long this list would be....

SELECT Name FROM Users WHERE Nerd = 1

While everyone ponders that, I will be decoding mcgunni's binary statement using SQL....

"Let's play Global Thermonuclear War" is the correct answer to that wall of binary.

...and nerds can afford lift tickets, Gore-Tex, and fancy shaped skis.

I thought the Commodore 64 was badass, until we got one of these:
20070416051510!Commodore_128.png


But then we always used it in 64 mode, since that's the only way we could run all the stuff we'd written.

10 FOR X= 1 TO 3
20 IF X=1 THEN A$= "COMMODORE 64"; IF X=2 THEN A$= "APPLE LISA"; IF X=3 THEN A$="TIMEX SINCLAIR"; IF X=4 THEN A$= "TRS-80"
30 PRINT "SENT FROM MY " A$ "."
40 NEXT X
50 GOTO 10
