It is a shame to see someone leave the scene who has been involved for so 
long.

You are quite right - it was an excellent computer, and the sense of 
community you had with fellow users was second to none. Even though I had a 
lot of problems with getting a SAM I've never regretted it. Even with 
hindsight I still don't.

My only regret is that these days I feel our loyalty is being exploited by 
having to pay for downloaded software. But I won't get into this now, my ear 
is aching enough!

Good luck for the future Phil.
