.model small
.stack
.data
Message db "Press Y or N:$" ;Prompt for user
Uyes db "You pressed Y!$" ;Pressed y
Uno db "You pressed N!$" ;Pressed n

;how to do assembly:
;download masm32
;download link563.exe (extracts link.exe)
;replace c:\masm32\bin\link.exe with THAT link.exe
; use ml /c /coff blah.asm
;  then    link blah.obj
; when it asks you for blah.exe  just keep hitting enter.
