samdsk: thanks.
Yay! I finally got my newly created sam disks to work in my real SAM. Excellent stuff... That modplayer someone sent me eons ago is pretty cool. Now I've got to start downloading countless mod-files to play... Outwrite will be good once I work out how to use it... :) Took me a while to work out how to load the manual! (I pressed random keys until something happened!) Oh, And Chris Pile's Defender. Wow! If you haven't played it, play it now! (Or was I the last one to do so?) But did he have to make it so damn difficult :) Justin.

I loved playing the Defender clones, when I was a kid, on the speccy. Perhaps it is difficult because I'm out of practice... :) -Original Message- From: Chris Pile [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Justin Skists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Oh, And Chris Pile's Defender.

But you did have to be a bit of a contortionist in the finger department to play the original!! Especially if you were 'unlucky' enough to find one with buttons for up/down, rather than a joystick!! Imagine trying to mimic the original twin-joystick control of Robotron-2084 on a SAM keyboard!! ;) Chris.
RE: defender (was: samdsk: thanks.)
How did you manage to get the SAM conversion as close to the original as possible? Do you actually have a Defender arcade machine in your bedroom, or something? :) -Original Message- From: Chris Pile [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Justin Skists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I loved playing the Defender clones, when I was a kid, on the speccy.

It could be yours for a mere UKP1500 http://www.emuunlim.com/Arcadewarehouse/defender.html with the buttons or http://www.emuunlim.com/Arcadewarehouse/defender-cocktail.html for the table top version with the stick :-) Dan.
