OMG. Can you imagine publishing Machine Code for Beginners today??

Usborne 1980s Computer Books

Image of a book cover. The title is "Usborne Introduction to Machine Code for Beginners" and it has colourful cartoon drawings of piece of paper and notepads with cryptic assembly code on them, and some futuristic space ship flying over a planet. In the corner it advertises "For the Z80 and 6502" (The 6502 was in the original Atari 2600 video game system)

@paco I had that book!

@paco
Just skimmed through it.

I would have loved a book like that growing up. As it is, some of the stuff covered in it I only learned about when going to college, years later.

I would have been of the right age to get this book! Alas, it doesn't seem to be available in Dutch though. Plus, I only got my first computer (a C-128 hand me down) in the mid 90s... 🤷
