This is an area where Quanta should be able to provide significant backing as it is very worthwhile for the QL and I would think traders would like a bit of the action too. They should sell very well at shows. The software needs to include a way to read floppy disks so users who have data on QL floppies can bring it to the "stick". I would rather see careful execution of the project so the final product is of high quality and those designing it are rewarded with money than a quick "stick" that takes a lot of fiddling. I am thinking I need two. I have a friend in mind who is always complaining about setting up an emulator. I want to see his face when I plug the "QL on a stick" into his PC. -- Bill _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
