Re: A83: Re: 86? 89? Perhaps and Maybe
I really want an 89, but its kinda expensive and I've only had my 83 for
about 8 months.... Plus I'm only in 9th grade :(... Well it could
probably do the work for me! lol, The 83 helps alot but I bet the 89 is
much better... I'll get one in 11th grade... By then they will have made
about a few more calcs , and I'll save my money for the best one :P So
your all saying z80 and 68k is kinda the same? So my knowledge on z80
will actually help me?

"A 'Sprite' is computer jargon for a picture that is moved across a
screen. Look at
any arcade game, and all those little moving parts are sprites."
