My ZX Spectrum 48K came with a great presentation on casette tape (which ran on the computer) that explained CPU, ROM, RAM, ALU, Basic etc. I see nothing similar to that today.

On the other side was a bunch of sample basic programs you could study and learn from.

Today, a lot of people who pass themselves as programmers are only capable of pushing pretty buttons ready-made for them but not much more.
