Having to deal with all kind of Windows and Linux systems in my professional life, I must say that the pain is not big enough for most people and the industry to rethink and restart. That's how human function, look at cars or electricity for example. Even with global warming and GAU's like Chernobyl and Fukushima rethinking and revolution are slow and with hurdles. Anyhow, I still spend approx. an hour a day to keep your legacy alive. The QL/E distribution - made with my limited skills and capabilities - is an offspring which is a handy thing to run, experience and show what-could-have-been. At least those 500+ completed downloads since April 2015 prove some interest is still there. http://sinclairql.net/repository.html#QLE Urs _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List
