Fair comment, I know i'm a relative newbie to the sam (i've had
speccies since that magical '82 date)
but i've looked for months now, and no-one seems to have, any form
of nicely renamed sam coupe software
if i knew that anyone else had started one, then i would have joined
in, rather than done my own, but as a newbie,
i wanted to do something that would hopefully benefit us all for
years to come (and maybe get more people interested
in the SAM also!)
as for remembering the SAM first time round, I used to spend hours
drooling over them in my local shop
thinking WOW when that picture of the spaceman was on!
