My names Stephen Gadd and i've been interested in the QL ever since I read an article about it in an Amiga Format emulation special. Anyway, after unsuccessfully bidding on a few QLs on Ebay (which went way out of my price range) I was advised (by the very friendly and informative Phoebus and Malcom Callum) on some potential second hand machines. Malcom also informed me of this mailing list so I thought i'd say hi. Hopefully soon i'll have my own machine and can start experimenting with various upgrades and introducing myself tolots of the available software. Um..not much else to add.

I missed the '.uk' of the address I gave you :-( With an iMac you are in for further delights, as there is a QL emulator for that machine too ... -- Malcolm Cadman

Welcome to the fold then Stephen - there's a whole wealth of things to try and I even sell a lot of low cost second hand gear as well as new software if you need anything in particular. Most of the traders are willing to help in exchange for a pint (or similar). That's why the QL shows are so friendly (oh, how I miss being able to go.) Anyway, if you want to see the current state of the QL software market - have a look at our new program: http://hometown.aol.co.uk/RWAPSoftware/QWord.html (Sorry for the plug yet again) --Rich Mellor RWAP Services35 Chantry Croft, Kinsley, Pontefract, West Yorkshire, WF9 5JHTEL: 01977 610509Visit our website at:URL:http://hometown.aol.co.uk/RWAPSoftwareStuck with ordinary dial up internet connection ??

Re: [ql-users] A wannabe-QL users says hi
Hi Stephen, You're very welcome to the list. We're a friendly bunch and you'll find all of us fairly helpful - most of us have been around QL's since the beginning, so don't be afraid to ask any questions - the only stupid one is the one you don't ask!! QL's are nearly always available at Shows for very silly prices, I also think Roy Wood of QBranch has a few for sale. You can also use the QL Emulator for the Amiga you have which is very good indeed, or even Q-Emulator for the Mac!! I Sell a CD-ROM filled with most of the QL Emulators, and over a thousand QL programs - its only £5. (shamless plug) If you want to send me your address privately, I will send you one free of charge to welcome you as a QL user.
