Darren,
Maybe not as useful as at first thought.
Needs a pentium processor and Windows XP/2000/NT4 they do not support Win
3.1/95/98/ME according th the web site http://www.daneprairie.com/ but I
have yet to see if it will still work on Win98.
The utility produces a 'last page' with details of
Even Worse - some of mine is in there ;-)
Seriously, you should see it - the most methodically indexed system I have
ever seen, every disk in alphabetical order, one disk per program. All in
tough durable posso boxes - dozens of them.
Would even put the bank where I work to shame.
Darren
I'll download it and give it a go - can't hurt (though knowing windows, it
might!) :-)
I use Win 95 and 98SE at home, but Windows NT4 at work so all is not lost.

Hi all,
Has anybody tried the games that are now available via the Sky Digital
remote? They are on the interactive menu, under Sky active (used to be
Open).
There are a few that are pay to use (50p per session, as many games as you
like) but most are free to play - card games and arcade
I suggested Marvin Mole a while back when Jochen was short of articles for
QL Toady. I used to play that one, and had major problems on a couple of
levels :o(
It seems to have gone now. My wife plays that damned BeeHive game all the
time - she got quite good at the Christmas special version last
... except in assembler or C applications?
Or other machine code producing compiled languages. :)

Yes please! Is it a 'clean' copy which is runnable, or a program which

If the latter, it is probably something I could put on the website

They can still be obtained from a stationery company called CLP I
think.
As the game is not very graphically demanding, it seems Ideal to be
converted for a QL. Actually quite a few of them are. Take a look and

I'll second that. My Dad is as technically minded as a sheep. I once found

Honestly. Strange for a man who was once a Electrical Engineer in the Navy.

What I _really_ hate about the PC is not being in control (of W98).
So often the only solution is to re-install Windows - and even then not
the proper 'clean' install. What a monster W98 is - and what a con.
