If I may (please) borrow Dilwyn's words -
"I tend to do anything computer related on the QL (well, QPC2)
where possible and resort to the PC for anything I can't do from the
QL half - Internet access, CD writing for example."
I especially make use of Psion's Archive - because it's relational and I've
invested hundreds of programing hours in its (sometimes querky)
language.
Introducing motivated novices to computing concepts. The QL and Sbasic are
ace for this.
{Am I in a time warp? I also use a *1970's* "child's" electronic project
teaching kit - hardware - strictly discrete componets; in connection (!)
with the above.}
To date, all pupils are already, or are going to be, on an MS-PC
platform.... .
Ah well. :<(
