No - it's actually out for Windows now (see blitzbasic.com if you're interested). However, my first computer was a late-1981 TRS-80 Color Computer which came with BASIC built-in - that's where I learned to program. While I was intrigued by the Amiga when it came out (since it was so well-designed), I had to pass due to its lack of software (also a problem with the Color Computer). I finally replaced my beloved 1 MHz 8-bit CoCo in early 1988 with a PC-clone Tandy 1000 EX (a whopping 7 MHz 16-bit - woo-hoo!). Since then, I've stuck with PC machines at home solely because non-mainstream games (like wargames) show up there more often than anywhere else.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Try saying "Pepto-Bismol" twice every 4 hours and see if it clears up .
