Hi Dave,
Got shut of my SAM for just over 100 in the end which I'm happy
enough with - only a matter of time before the PSU bites the dust
again anyway!

you keep one of them? I'm after The Sims and I think I remember

Any ideas?

Hi Steve - its good to have the old famouns names coming back to

A huge big SAM website, something along the lines of World of
Spectrum, was something I toyed with a while ago - but like
everything I think of it never gets off the ground.
I used to snip the frayed edges off the ones on my speccy and
plug them back in and it worked fine.
Tried it with the SAM though and cut a little bit too much off - had to

I've got a load of SAM software sitting up here which I want shut

Games are #2 each with a quid for p+p (if you want the original

Utils are #4 each and the same applies.
Issues of FRED are #1 each, or 60p each if you buy two or more at

anybody has them lying around.

Christmas is on the way (obviously) and so, being in the festive
mood, I thought I'd set everybody a challenge.
Obviously there is little new and exciting available for the Sam, and
certainly if there is any new releases in the pipeline they're being
kept fairly quiet, but if I had, say stlg50
