Turbo Pascal and Broland Pascal .. the memories - we used to compete in the demo scenes in Scandinavia back in the day, and even though most of our hot paths where assembly and close to illegal instructions that would crash certain cpu steppings, we would always boot the code from .pas .. and the low hanging fruit was always pascal..

All of our competitors were mostly pure asm or c combo..

Thanks for posting that comment! Made me smile and reminisce
