Yup, we had similar experiences. We used a similar breadboard in a suit case product with similar I/O stuff. Compiler design was a favorite. Still use some the techniques in code, especially parsing user inputs. Did not do much actually assembly coding, but as part of the compiler design courses, we had to create our own assembly language and a simulator written in Fortran, running on a Data General Eclipse mini-computer (not so mini by today's std) about 1 computer rack in size, to execute it. Did many an all-nighter. Went from punch cards to dumb terminals to micro-computers. I worked in the same lab after graduating so my experiences there spanned into the early 80's. Good times indeed.

Thanks, I try. It's going to take me longer than usual it seems. It's a pretty involved topic, and I have to take breaks. It's not so much that it's long, but there are a lot of angles to cover and if I don't clear my head periodically I forget to include some.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

The thread below was auto cleansed to remove a closed spam message, and the thread attached to pkfox's.
I was not and am not accusing pkfox, it's an "oddity" of the new CP system for spam message handling: Bugs and Suggestions[^]

Please don't post the answer on the same day.
At least rename title to Spoiler Alert.

This thread became a great source of bewilderment after spam posted below pk's got deleted and the replies to it look like they're talking to pk.

Thank **** for that - I was wondering who I was talking about!
That's not a good bug ... the new autocleanse system needs some attention ...

When working in a MVC app, do NOT name any of your entity properties "Model". If you do, the post-back when you click your submit button will give you a null entity object.
