potential PPC Amiga REAL CHEAP

I like what lou_dias likes...

Simply because it annoys you all, ya 'feckers!

Now, now... let's all have a cup of tea and be gentlemanly!

I'd like to get into programming on Amiga, would it be best to start with something like Blitz Basic 2 or go head first into Storm-C?

I've seen a few applications made with Blitz so I'm assuming it's not just for games (Didn't they make Worms and Super Skidmarks with it?).

I'm assuming you can only begin to learn Assembly when you're a certified recluse...

There are 2x PD games on Aminet that, if you have a friend handy, are the most addictive Bomberman/Gauntlet style games around:

They're both coded in Assembly and how they managed this I'll never know because the complexity of the weapons, sounds and arenas is quite impressive.

When it comes to apps I've always thought TurboPrint 7 was badass and that was assembly. However I do appreciate that the more complex you get the more visual your programming language needs to be. I tried Visual Basic at a college years ago and liked the way GUIs could be built up like a flat-pack Ikea wardrobe.

I once asked on a thread how it would be possible to create a website with an active database linked to it, so that users could click on MUI style column sorters to arrange fields in order (like when you click price on eBay and they go in highest or cheapest order).

I was told AmiSQL can do this but I seem to have PHP in my mind.

What's the relation between PHP, Apache, SQL and CGI scripts? And what is https, XML and CSS?
