One of the programs on these Beagle Bros floppies, and I can't for the life of me remember which one, or in what context this happened, printed the following on the screen:

Quote
One day, all books will be interactive and animated.

(Also, if you can find and screenshot the specific Beagle Bros program that I'm thinking of here, I'd be very grateful: there's a free CODE Keyboard with your name on it.)


If anyone is able to locate that as Jeff describes you can either claim the keyboard for yourself or allow me to claim it and I'll send you $50 in BTC

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

http://beagle.applearchives.com/the_software/vintage_beagle_bros_softwar/beagle-screens.zip seems to be the definitive source, but I can't get Virtual ][ to open or convert the fucking .dsk files.

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

Yeah, I'm not going to use a Microsoft OS again for $50. Maybe $5000 per hour...

Lol yea it's small but if you want you could claim and keep the keyboard for yourself but that may not be worth it either

Jeff may also be sending us out on a wild goose chase for all I know

Just emailed a link and quote of the relevant part to Bert Kersey from Beagle Bros.
