Colin, I have nothing but respect for the work you've done on the SAM, I think that the Quazar is a great piece of hardware, (And yes, I know I never bought one, but so many other things in my life conspired to cost money, now that I'm in the USA, there's not much point... :( ). I think that you've developed a lot of good software, I like Stratosphere. I think that the dedication you show by releasing Soundbyte regularly is second to none. I also think that this other mailing list is a REALLY ill-conceived idea. I know there's a lot of off-topic conversation here, but really, as Ian points out - 8 posts a day is a problem? YOU can start an on-topic discussion on THIS list. People won't ignore it. And no emulation? At the moment, I can't afford to get my SAM shipped across the Atlantic and get the requesit hardware to actually use the thing. I mean, do you really expect me to do that? So here I am, someone who received his SAM *before* Christams 1989, and has kept up the faith ever since, and I'm being excluded from your list, as the only SAM I can access here is a virtual one? We *don't* have the posts to support two lists, and I won't be joining the new one. I just hope it doesn't kill this one. We've developed a community over the last ten years, and thanks to this we all have a lot of friends whom we would not have otherwise. And shocking as it may seem, the community we've formed sometimes goes beyond the SAM and we talk off-topic. Big problem, eh? Such a high volume. Not. I think the best thing to do here is to start and contribute to the relevant threads, and for the rest of it - enjoy the ride! -- James R Curry - [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The Balloon Doggies DEMANDED it!"
