I was on this list ages ago, and have returned because I am informed it is the best place to find out about the current status of copyright on many SAM products. I stopped using my SAM in 92 or 93, so excuse me if my knowledge of available software isn't quite up to date.
Anyway, I notice that many commercial titles are now available on the SAM FTP site, but that several are not. Is this representative of which titles are now free for distribution? Talking about specifics, what is the status of the SAMCo newdisks? I have all five, but my issues 2 and 3 have been beset by bad sectors (just a couple of articles affected on the March disc, but Frebrurary loses the menu program), so I'd like to find new copies, and could upload the other three if its just that no-one else has. I also have at least one game I have managed to transfer which is not on the ftp site - Vegetable Vacation (its awful), and one which refuses to transfer due to more sector errors - Futureball/SAM Strikes Out. What is the status of these? Also, how on earth do I use etx files? I forget what I downloaded that was in this form - probably 'The Wild Bunch' - but I'm at a loss. -Thomas ______________________________________________________ Free Email - http://www.lycos.co.uk/service/lycosmail/ The funniest email attachments on the web - http://viral.lycos.co.uk
