      @scottalanmiller It is amazing that now most programs are not just for a model or a brand machine

        Cool I like it, where is the second video?

        All of the videos are in the thread, you just have to scroll down.

          I know, a totally different world. It wasn't that long ago that people would say things like "Oh that's a Mac formatted file." Now there isn't even a concept as a file just for one kind of computer, what would that even mean?!

            @scottalanmiller I like it, It makes me remember my first steps in the university studying basic programming course.

                  It was a pretty big challenge.

                    Just found this thread and can say that I watched these as a kid and loved them.
                    This program wasn't around for that long but in the early 90's another program took over in a similar fashion "Dotto's Data Cafe". Much higher level but I loved them just the same.

                      ...and I never realized there was a Bits and Bites 2. Looking at the episodes I remember watching them but never put 2+2 together.
                      Billy Van took over the show for a few more episodes without Goy as the instructor.

                        Yeah, not nearly as good, though. Both the format lost something, and the time period just wasn't as cool.

                                Woow This one was very interesting, I just wonder what happened to LOGO, seems like it was really good for kids to learn to program.

                                  It's super common and never went away. Every Linux system ships with it included still today.

                                            Really Interesting! I think now we have also IA bots for chats that helps for learning and also for give support right? Now it is more advanced.
