Ok, to change the topic from current discussion lately ;-)
I am a newbie to the Sam world, I bought a machine on ebay as a whim and
to reach one of my childhood dreams of owning one. As a kid I could not
afford one and by the time I had $$$ Sam had dissapeared and it was time
for Uni.
So I now have this lovely Sam Coupe with 1.5 working drives and 512K of
memory. What games/demos/widgets should I be getting for it. Would be
good to give this machine as much love as my collection of spectrums and
zx81 get!
Welcome to the list Graeme, hope you are enjoying tinkering with your SAM!
A lot of people have already mentioned some of the items I've created for
the SAM and posted links to my website so I won't repeat what others have
said. But if you've any questions about what I do please drop me a line via
the website and I'll be happy to answer.

A subscription to SAM Revival - and set of back issues - would be the
ideal treat :)
There's a teaser of issue 24 up on my website just now as a downloadable PDF
to show what's on the way. I'm also offering 10% off back issues until next
weekend.
