This is not true. When you mean bitness as number of data lines

The source for this [sound] work is 14k in size and when assembled
increases to 40k in Z80 - Sam and 143k on the Amiga and rather amusingly
780k on the
PC ( no Idea - perhaps I have missed an optimising flag ).
Sounds about right if you ask me - this is why SAM's so great isn't it.

I can imagine very easy-to-use system, which can load any executable in
any
of that 32 x 16kb pages
and run it there. The whole basic ROM of Sam is very obsolete, although
the Basic itself is good.
I think it would be much better to have some DOS utils in

Alternatively, if MGT existed, they could move to an ARM-based system
with a
3D graphics card, a linux kernel, and sell it cheap.
Not a bad idea?!

All this talk of porting games and being clever with a Z80 is stirring
up the old SAM vibes

As far as I'm concerned - he can have a copy - if anyone can sort it out for

So where do we stand Dave? Do you know anything about
WOW! What an amazing response!
I started out reporting Atic-Atac as a first milestone - because the game
engine although top down lends itself to map design and fast sprite
requirements. I have made serious progress on this and have created versions
for PC, Amiga and SAM which do all you

Hi there Dave - nice to see someone return to the Sam!.
Here's my two cents on what you said -
