Let's put it this way -- BOB is now claiming (May issue of FORMAT) that he sent the disc back to Nigel ALL 3 TIMES and the second time he sent a different disc. He also seems to have no idea whatsoever about statutory consumer rights -- which is something I'll have a look at from a legal angle soon to sort him out. If he's selling damaged or bugged goods, people shouldn't have to send a "customary" SAE as he puts it in order to get them fixed -- he sells them in that state, he should foot the bill.

Hope that's settled now. Erm.. possibly. We're working on hardware with him on our own -- the Hard Drive, Accelerator, Graphics board, new SAM-OmniBus, SAM Multiface add-on for the accelerator and lots more are Entropy/Rooksoft/Blue Alpha developments -- Entropy and Rooksoft inventing them, Blue Alpha mass producing them. Apart from the hard- drive that is -- Entropy's just designing and coding the BIOS ROM for it. Oh, and the DOS. BTW: For entropy, should that read "Simon Cooke?" Possibly.

Erm.... well, it's got loadsa bugs, no documentation of a technical nature, and the wordprocessor is*SERIOUSLY* bugged.
