I suppose Robin Harbron would have to differ with me as well... ;^D

There's a good save; thanks. Though 6510 assembler might not be "long dead", I
believe it and its subspecies are mainly found on sparsely populated,
subtropical islands.
Though my "Atari experience" helped land the job I now have, I can't honestly
say I've had much chance to use my assembler knowledge here at work (the
"mainland", if you will) or even the time to work on demos at home! (Danged 40
hours a week job!) I do get teased a good deal, however. Usually along the
lines of, "I know I'm a geek, but Ruffin programs for the _Atari_!!!"
Glenn -- just wanted to make sure you'd gotten my offer to video and even
possibly conduct the Robinett interview... I certainly don't mind driving!
Thanks,
