And my pocket fold-out cheat-sheet for the CPU OP codes ;-) Breadboarding our own CPU, RAM, I/O, etc. Mind you, when it comes to compiling OP codes in your head, then punching hex into a bouncy keypad, I really wouldn't want to have to program anything more than the codes required to operate a washing machine or microwave oven. Before that, I had toyed with BASIC. But it was so useless (at least the simpler implementations you found on personal computers, back then), that you soon give up on trying to do anything good with it.
