Hello,
I once had a book in english about computers it was about 8bit microcomputes it showed about basic and i whould love to see it
again so this is what I remember from it.
It's name was ....... and was about basic the cover had a pencil, paper
and a computer keyboard halft i think it has on left down corner of the cover
and on the right paper and pencil, I remember very well it said no computer needed for the book ( but that didn't made me read and learn basic i still wanted a computer for it :D ) I think it was publish in 1987 but if not was during the 1984-1987 z80 era.

I did a search on that site i have no idea if it was cpc or c64 i think it was in general
Hi Fewbytes
I am sorry but only books CPC specific or directly related to the CPC is covered in CPCWIKI. BASIC is a pretty wide subject (as this was built in language on most homecomputers of the 80's), and probably covered elsewhere. Where exactly i dont know, but maybe others here can help?

mmm none but we my dad was close to buying an amstrad 472 i think
and i had lots of tapes but at the end we give them all to a friend who owned
an amstrad as we couldn't buy it.
