Greetings from Prague
Hello everybody,
First of all, I have to apologize I am not using French here. I've started to learn French, but I am still at basics, so I am no able to communicate yet.
If you continue reading anyway, here is a brief summary of my computer history.
I am from Prague, Czech Republic, so my access to computers was strongly affected by the iron curtain. When I was about 13, I had a possibility to try a "real" programming on HP 9830A (of course owned by a company), and it was a great experience. But it was really very exceptional to have a possibility like this at that time. At the secondary school, there were programming lessons, but to my disappointment, we used just a paper and a pencil, there were no computers.
My first calculator was HP-21 (not programmable), and it started my passion for RPN and similar stack-oriented concepts, like FORTH.
The first computer of my own was a ZX Spectrum+, and after I got through the BASIC, my interest was drawn to the machine language programming. Later, in my job, I was programming the microcontrollers like 8048, 8051 etc., also in the ML.
There were other interesting computers and calculators, but for the purpose of this forum, the most important piece was Sharp PC-1500A which I got from my friend in 2017 (or so). Again, I started with BASIC, but my interest is mainly in the ML now.

Re: Greetings from Prague
Benvenuto !
I’ve been to Prague on vacation and it’s a lovely city. I also worked near Brno years ago. I learned a few words in Czech but I remember less than 10 I guess (Dobri den, Dobri vecer, Dobro nots, prosim..... and Pivo).

Re: Greetings from Prague
Well done Pivo is of course the most important word.

Re: Greetings from Prague
When I was in Prague I photographed each glass beer I drank. BTW there’s also a brand named Bernard Pivo !
French will understand.
