Assembly programmers have the chance of a lifetime. Programs churned out like never before. Banner ads eliminated after an angry mob storms Park Ridge, IL and burns Nick's house to the ground, taking his formerly for-sale calculators. File adding speed increased tenfold. Backlogs are a thing of the past.

Really, really good programs made. Phil Genera, coder of the mirror system, flees to a cave in the Adironacks. File archives double in size within the year. All quadform and otherwise redundant programs purged. Nick Disabato celebrates his 100th birthday.
