year CE students didnot have to do some thousand calculations :P. First version was using gotoxy, next one using BGI. But then 640x480 really sucked after a point.

Nah, not much really but the effort I took those days were much more than these days. It was probably an escape route for me or something when I was supposed to something else ;)
The best part about Allegro was its community. There is thisforum site, www.allegro.cc. Loads of helpful people there. For a long
totally agreed :P
Didn't know that you were there. Never saw you there or remember you from my forum days. Only Indians I remember are - Deepak T and one dude from BITS Pilani whose nick was "guilt". Probably you came after I left.
one of the reasons I completely moved to Linux was allegro. I worked with allegro for some time on windows but then when the new version came out, it wouldn't compile. I tried tried tried and then simply got fed
Really? Never had any problems on Windows. I hardly ever programmed anything with Allegro on Linux. At the most, I just built or probably just installed the package on Linux because I was getting bored or something. Whatever worthwhile Allegro stuff I did was all on Windows 98, probabably a very little bit on Win2K.
Anyway, 'twas a long time ago! :)
Yups, but I am thinking of going back there, may in some time. :)
