| Do other SAM users remember OUTLET disk magazine, published by Brian and
Ron
| Cavers of Leicester?
|
| OUTLET was originally Spectrum-based, and soon catered for SAM in the
early
| days. Before long, Brian and Ron produced a SAM-specific version, and
very
| good it was too, even if a bit pricey. Some very good SAM programs
appeared in
| OUTLET, and huge amounts of techie stuff which gave me headaches. I
| particularly liked the letters, which were well-written and informative,
even
| if some were just a bit critical of the FORMAT/INDUG empire. (Honest!
some
| people seemed to have grievances against INDUG now and again.)
|
| Brian and Ron always seemed to be busy, as they ran OUTLET in its various
| formats for profit. I found them obliging and helpful, and willing to
give
| encouragement to other SAM and Spectrum users and groups.
|
| I'm not sure if OUTLET is still copyright, or if there's any chance of
| persuading Brian and Ron to relinquish copyright. I have most issues of
SAM
| OUTLET, and they are safely under lock and key at an unspecified
location. If
| OUTLET was ever made PD, I could unearth the disks easily.

I think you will find that the Sam version of Outlet was sold to Fred
Publishing a couple of years ago.
