Hi Andrew. I guess you will not receive too much answers here. A lot of people are "inhome" programers, always thinking, their programs weren´t good enough. I did a lot of (unreleased) Spectrum conversions (PD programs in Basic), but also own works such board- and cardgames (mostly for myself). But maybe I will set siome "german" stuff next time at my website ;-) Solong Wolfgang www.womoteam.de/SAM (I know, I know, it´s a bit ago since last update...)

You can find Flash on the white diskette supplied with original Sam Coupe. I am sure it must be somewhere at NVG ftp server, but I can't remember the file name.

He works with his friend, who also never fully recovered from his surgury (brain tumor) building PCs and doing web support. He still lives at the same address but Format is no more. He wasn't even able to come to my wedding a few weeks ago. Thanks for the explanation Nev. Feeling everso slightly guilty about my previous he-was-probably-bullshitting remarks now. Even so, if anyone got nasty with him concerning owed issues of Format/any other merchandise, he couldn't really complain considering how nasty he allegedly was to poor old Bill Richardson...

Didn't he complain that someone reported him for claiming disability whilst he was still earning money from Format/WCC/Revelation? Nah... not in the pages of Format, anyway. The only clue I can find is in the editorial of the final issue (dated October 1998, but not received till months later): "I'm sorry the technical hotline has been out of action for most of the last month. I've been missing from the office due to personal illness - a virus which caused swelling of the cartilage joining my ribs together, this made breathing difficult and talking even worse [...] While I am still suffering a bit, and some of the drugs are leaving me very tired, I am back to the grindstone now [...]" That'd certainly explain why he's been out of action (except for posting sillyness on newsgroups) since then, but of course knowing Bob there's always the distinct possibility that it's a complete load of nonsense... He never vanished, he just went quiet on us. He's probably reading this now. Mr Dooré and your sam-users Real Names List of legend - are you still around?

Yeap, I do repairs! Over the last few months I've done a few - a one meg interface, mouse interface, video circuitry in a Sam, built a couple 256k upgrades, as well as a handful of disk drive systems which is a new product I produce. (see webbie for details of them). There's a lot of info on my website about all my new stuff - and i've still a lot to upload (which i aim to finally get round to sometime this week - new gfx are all done... just got to type up a lot of text!) Everything I do for the Sam is covered in the information pack I send out - see the website or email me directly with your postal address and I can send it out.
