Alternatively I might just write the shoot-em-up I always wanted but

I'm with Gavin to share the lot !
Many things where created for SAM and are hold back because of the 'respect'
and while time passes
things get lost or will get bad as floppies won't live forever. Then things
that where created with enthiousasm
and took many hours of work will simply disappear.
Watch this space for other methods - well, actually subscribe to Sam Revival
as news will hit there first ;)

You need to send that to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and probably

However, I do take your point that floppy disks have a limited
lifespan, so we should try to make sure that everything is imaged and
catalogued. Perhaps we could maintain a list of what images exist -
not necessarily to release the images right now, but to make sure that
everything will still

Am starting to get all nostalgic now, thinking about those many hours
I spent with Sam back in the early nineties. I miss it... that real
sort of big community feel

Hi Gavin.
I full agree with you and all those, who are thinking in the same way.
And I offer you my help, as I can send you a list of my collected SAM
stuff of more than thousands programs of all sort I collected in many
years (worldwide) to show what was programmed for the SAM. If you want,
Gavin,
You are right about this. I have spent many years with my SAM and every now
and then get nostalgic to look at some of the stuff that was produced for
it. An archive would only represent a nostalgic look at some of the stuff I
never purchased; and would not purchase now even if it was on
Hmmm - does that mean that Colin is NOT allowed to
spend his hard time and money into legally obtaining
software, which benifits owners of real Sams? (Or
emulator owners using the floppy emulation?)
Colin has permission to release any titles which
belong to me - ie by direct copyright transfer

All you have said there is that the author/owner wants to charge and that is
exactly what I supported. I think it is time, however, to support the
release of other software that hasn't been claimed before it disappears.

Agree with Gavin - it's all well and good saying 'wait for the right time'
but when will that time be? 5 more years, maybe 10? In the PC industry, that
is a lifetime.
Most of the people who wrote these things will have no interest in an old
8-bit machine anymore.
