I used to speak fluent Commodore BASIC v2 and v3.5, QBasic, Vbasic, and had a working ability in C+ and Pascal.
Was also very fluent in z80 machine (hex) code and PIC16C.
But I can't understand these modern high-level languages: Its too much like English

ahhh the old motorla 68000. 16 bit computing at its best. Had an old atari ST 512. Always thought it had better games than the commodore amiga. Gawd, the number of Was Not Was compilation discs i had was immense. cut me teeth with Dungeon Master on my atari along with Millenium 2.2.
Sold it for a 486 DX33 with 4MB of Ram and 512MB HDD. Cost me a clean fortune.
I am getting all melancholy those where simpler times

Learned Pascal and C+ at Uni. Got a job with the MOD after I graduated working on Command Systems for Submarines, prog language Corel66. Pretty sure the 66 referred to the year it was first released!!!

My first computer was a Science of Cambridge MK14 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MK14). 256 bytes of memory, no assembler, everything had to be hand coded in machine code. It didn't even have an absolute jump instruction, so writing code for it required lots of hex subtraction.

I used to be quite the expert on the BBC micro and, later on, the Archimedes. I pretty much stopped programming the day I sold my A5000 for a PC - which didn't come with any programming languages built in - and went down the route of tinkering with hardware instead.
