5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic (if outdated) resource
While very few (if any) people will need to learn Amigabasic, if anyone out there needs to, this book is perfect. Step by step instructions along with helpful commentary creates a fantastic learning environment.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is out of date and worthless.
This book is a tutorial on the Microsoft written AmigaBasic, which broke at version 1.3 of the operating system due to extremely poor programming practices of Microsoft. As almost nobody can use the Amiga operating system below 2.04, this book was obsolete when it was published.

As almost nobody can use the Amiga operating system below 2.04, this book was obsolete when it was published. The local library bought multiple copies of this publishing obscenity, all of which are still on the shelves as no-one cares even enough about this tome to steal it

1.0 out of 5 stars Tutorial on AmigaBasic; obsolete and worthless., June 27, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Kids and the Amiga (Paperback)
This book was obsolete when it was published, as it is a tutorial on the poorly written AmigaBasic programmed by Microsoft. Almost nobody uses AmigaDOS 1.3, which is the latest OS that this program works. The local library recently bought multiple copies of this book, all of which collect dust on the shelves
