What's your best easy to remember BASIC program you could type in and leave running on a computer in a shop / classroom?

I was thinking the other day about the universal:

10 PRINT "Mr Smith smells of POO"
20 GOTO 10

But are there other better ones?

Kudos to the best one. Bonus if it works on any 80s home computer that runs BASIC.

What do you want to see more of in this subreddit?

Hi everyone - so I've been modding this subreddit for a while, and have been adding posts that pop up and are of interest to the community. With lots of new Next owners imminent (including me) what would you like to see more of?

I've been considering:

  • We will have an unboxing megathread!
  • Start here guide for newbies
  • Hardware reviews
  • Game reviews

What else?

The Commodore Phone I wish they’d make

This popped up a few years ago - a concept for a mini C64 by Cem Tezcan - yes the keyboard is giving me carpal tunnel just by looking at it - but a portable with a thumb keyboard would be so much fun. With a mini FPGA capable of running as a c64 or even switch to a new more capable commodore core.. https://blog.adafruit.com/2019/12/12/a-concept-handheld-retro-commodore-hx-64-commodore-commodore64-artstationhq/
