Hi Phil and All I'm on the QL scene for a few months only, and for now I have only two black-box QLs but, untill I'll get some SGC, I think there is a field for software directed to the owners of "naked" QLs (and I'm ready to spare some of my free time for QL programming). I'm working with C language for over 15 years and the most exciting things I've done was for systems like Amstrad's CP/M machines,C64, ZX Spectrum and Atari 800XL, where you had to fight for every byte of addresable userspace. Today, I'm most excited with programming for embedded systems (unfortunately, since I'm developing in C++ and Java for live, these are rare situations). Now, I think people are looking for a megabytes of RAM and hundreds of megabytes of disk space, whereas what QL offers is enough for a day-by-day usage (i'm not talking about running enterprise using QLs and their network :-))
Just my 2 cents (or pennies)... Sergiusz _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
