I still have a QL (with Gold Card) but I tend to use a PC and QPC2 emulator the most, and also the Aurora system with Super Gold Card. But when Quanta made a survey of its members, they found that many people still use a QL with a small expansion (even some had a QL with no expansion). But people who have original QL systems tend not to write much here, so it looks like they don't exist! It is nice to see many new names here recently - Jan, Sergiusz, Neil, for example. I wonder how many other list members there are who only read the emails without writing to the list (I guess they are called "lurkers"). I hope you will all stay with us, the more people who join the list, the busier it gets. And if enough people ask for Super Gold Cards, who knows, someone might make one! I know a few of the chips are not available now, but I suppose someone could design a slightly updated GC or SGC to allow a few more to be made. At one time, we thought no more keyboard membranes were possible, but QBranch and Rich Mellor did manage to get more made. -- Dilwyn Jones > > The issue is that most wanted HW is not produced anymore.
