So how did you learn? BBC Micro wasn't my first computer experience (we had a PDP8 at school, which did Basic), but it was where I learned how to do assembler, which set me up for life.

Which mainframes did you use? I worked for ICL before I joined NTL, and am a dab hand at SFL (ICL mainframe assembler). A skill I don't get to use any more, sadly.
