No, it is not PD. Rights to the source code are split between Andy
Wright and West Coast. Andy is the copyright holder but West Coast
have the rights (aquired via me from SAMCO) to duplicate the ROM.

Added to this, when Andy had to concentrate on other work about three
years ago I agreeded to handle his SAM related interests for him.

AFAIK West Coast has now gone bye bye so I would think the sole rights
to the ROMS now lie with Andy. (Although I still have all the
equipment and sources to burn them [somewhere])

I wonder what the good doctor is doing these days ?
