For me it was a TRS-80 at Radio-Shack in Bellevue Square Mall. I read the book in the mall, and it had the traditional

It also told of the GOTO statment, and I got to wondering what would happen if I made the program go back to the beginning. So I went back into Radio Shack, and wrote:
10 PRINT "Hello, World!"
20 GOTO 10
The screen filled to overflowing and would have run forever! They had to shut it down! I was hooked.

And now they keep GOTOing it forever just because
This is the code that never ends, it just goes on and on my friends.
