Not yet, there will be on some information on my website later in the week.
Basically, it's a CD containing 3 emulators for Windows (QLay2, QemuLator shareware version and QPC2 demo version). It also contains a few sample QL programs (Turbo, Go!, S_Edit editor, and a text file viewer) plus a couple of Windows utilitities (WXQT2 PC-QL file transfer and QStripper for converting Quill DOC files to text/html/PDF/Docbook XML). QLay2 comes complete with a couple of DOS/Windows programs to help with file transfer between QL and PC as well. The idea is that you copy the CD to a USB pen drive of your choice (minimum free space needed on the pen drive is about 80MB, so a 128MB or greater USB pen drive is recommended. Once that's done, you can carry it around with you to plug into any PC with a USB port, so you have a truly portable "QL" you can carry around with you on a keyring if you wish! The CD version is available from me for 5 pounds, including UK postage, or add £1 for overseas postage. It will be available from Darren Branagh at Q-Celt Computing in Ireland, although I don't know if he intends to supply it on CD to keep costs down and allow people to choose their own pen drive, or if he intends to try to find a cheap source of drives to supply them completely ready to go. The "QL On A Stick" CD was formally launched at the Quanta workshop in Birmingham last saturday and quite well received - I issued several copies at the show and review copies are with QL Today, although I don't know if Quanta actually got their review copy in the end, it got a bit hectic at one stage! (John Gilpin - if reading this can you let me know if you got a copy for review on saturday). Hope that helps for now, until I get the info files in place on my website. -- Dilwyn Jones ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Loguidice" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 09, 2007 9:39 PM Subject: Re: [Ql-Users] Punters > Is there more information somewhere about the QL-on-a-stick? > > > ================================= > Bill Loguidice, Managing Director > Armchair Arcade, Inc. > http://www.armchairarcade.com > A PC Magazine Top 100 Website > ================================= > > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of hitchies > Sent: Tuesday, October 09, 2007 4:33 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Ql-Users] Punters > > Norman wrote... > > "Who needs a spring when you have gravity?" > > Please send me some (in green please) Norman! > > Thus, Malcolm wrote... > > I guess it also helps to be slightly mad ... :-) > > John in Wales (not raining) > "Attendee" > > _______________________________________________ > QL-Users Mailing List > http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm > > _______________________________________________ > QL-Users Mailing List > http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm > > > -- > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.5.485 / Virus Database: 269.14.6/1060 - Release Date: > 09/10/2007 16:43 > _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
