Welcome Head over to www.samcoupe.com as well. Colin Piggot has some bits and bobs to look at, when work doesn't get in the way ill hopefully completely finish the tcp/ip stack for the trinity interface. You can now use flash cards instead of floppy disks which is nice ;)
As to games I know most people didn't but I liked sphera. It was fun :D Adrian -----Original Message----- From: owner-sam-us...@nvg.ntnu.no [mailto:owner-sam-us...@nvg.ntnu.no] On Behalf Of toberm...@cookingcircle.co.uk Sent: 12 April 2012 12:31 To: sam-users@nvg.ntnu.no Subject: Re: Essential Sam Goodies Welcome Graeme! The Sam's as good 21 years later as it was Christmas 1990. We're generally cheerful too btw. Your best bet to find the best goodies is to visit World of Sam and have a damn good root around! Simcoupe itself is bundled with what I would call the best stuff, but you'll need a few things to port the PC images back to real floppies, namely SAMdisk (by Si Owen) and a PC with an INTERNAL 3.5 floppy drive (external won't do). Also have a good look round Andrew Collier's Intensity site because there's loads of great bits locked away. As for other stuff to get, I'd advise the Atom HDD, Stratosphere, Defender, Momentum, Lemmings, Protracker, E-tracker, SAMpaint, GI-mon, Comet, Pyz80, some kind of SAMdac or EDDAc, SAM mouse, and every diskzine you can get your hands on! There's just LOADS of great stuff available. What did I miss?

As a kid I could not afford one and by the time I had $$$ Sam had dissapeared and it was time for Uni. So I now have this lovely Sam Coupe with 1.5 working drives and 512K of memory. What games/demos/widgets should I be getting for it. Would be good to give this machine as much love as my collection of spectrums and zx81 get! Graeme Sent from my BlackBerry(r) smartphone on O2
