No, I mean, so you don't have a menu that pops up where you can select bcall(put_s) or something and instead you have to type it out letter for letter on the little ABCDEF keyboard. I didn't doubt that it was all on calc.

That way, the only thing the prog would have to do is to compile it. Not a bunch of menus like the built in basic programmer.

Sounds pretty pointless to me. A lot of asm is repetitive code marked by lengthy labels. Not to mention comments.

I suppose, but you have to think- us regular 83+ users only have so much archive space...

There's nothing bad in doing development on a computer and cross compiling. ASM is not the kind of language you want to program in five-minute epochs, so on-calc development, nice as it sounds, isn't really practical.

Except for those who dont have the money to have a compouter at home

Really? emachines sells cheap(emphasize) compouters. I saw one at best buy for 250 bucks: Monitor, printer, desktop and crappy software. And since an 84+ is like 150 bucks it's not that big a leap.

Or you could probalby build one your self for like 100 bucks if you are truly frugal. I've collected parts from others broken compouters to make one whole working one but the parts remain stacked in my closet.

I love compouters.

My paretns made me throw out half the hardware i had ... i still have crap loads of it.

Easily a few systems worth.

Yes, and they're crap. I'd rather collect the parts out of a skip and piece my own PC together than use an eMachines PC

If by skip you mean dumpster, then A-@#&%ING-MEN!!!! eMachines suck so badly.

I don't care what people say about them making better systems now, I am NEVER buying another one.

Do they even make them, they look like refurbished outdated compouters.

I guess so (large metal box with sloping walls that you put junk in then stick on the back of a lorry to take to a scrap yard/rubbish dump). I'm fortunate - all my PCs have been hp, and they've held together extremely well and been incredibly easy to rip apart and upgrade when the need comes.

I have built every PC i have ever owned. Its much funner ... not to mention cheaper that way.

Not having a computer doesn't make on-calc assembly in the least more practical...

Titan ASM would be awsome....

-I have an HP too...we have had it for like at least 8 years. I love how fairly simple it is to upgrade. I just put in a new video/sound card the thing runs, looks, and sounds awesome! If I were to by another home comp it would surely be an HP...back on topic now.

People can say it isn't pratical, but that is just their opinion. People will have a need for this, and they will use it...
