I didn't really notice any finicky behavior, but it was cumbersome to work with. My first program was a sprite that looped across the screen. It took me two weeks to write/debug that. I think it might have only been 300 lines of code, and I even had my cousin help since she was a better at typing, but it was the most glorious thing I had ever done up to that point.

Seeing Q*Bert in Wreck-It Ralph brought out the nostalgia feels.
