Just thought I would share this story, as to find this stuff like this
here in Australia is like winning the lottery. You don't find many IIgs'
for sale, certainly not with this kit installed! This system now gives
my main IIgs a run for its money which cost me an awful lot more!
It's a vicious circle. Mike feels like he wins lottery. Mike
convinces wife he won lottery. Wife makes Mike happy. Mike feels
like he won two lotteries.
LOL... Sounds great in theory, but I'm having a little trouble with the
"Mike convinces wife he won lottery" part. :-)
You could probably write it like this:
10 PRINT "Mike feels like he wins the lottery."
20 PRINT "Mike convinces wife he won lottery." : FAIL = 1
30 IF FAIL = 1 GOSUB 100 : GOTO 20
40 PRINT "Wife makes Mike happy".
50 PRINT "Mike feels like he won two lotteries"
60 END
100 PRINT "Wife is unconvinced; gives Mike a slap in the head."
110 RETURN
Now that's what I call a "vicious circle".
Apologies if I've made any errors, whilst I'm trying to teach my
daughter BASIC, for me its been over 20 years... but you get the idea.
