Device 8888

Device #8888 is a Computer that was given out by We and Us for Christmas 2018.

It is a retro-looking computer that runs on a variant of the BASIC programming language called PopBASIC. "The main difference between PopBASIC and early 80s variants of BASIC seems to be that string variables and string functions are prefixed with the $ sigil like $MID rather than suffixed like MID$."At first, Device 8888 seemed to be a stand-alone item, but there were some commands listed on the help screen having to do with Disks. Later a "Disks" button appeared, and some seeds were able to obtain Disks which could be inserted into the Device.
