Persona
Has anyone had any dealings with Persona in the last couple of months? I ordered some software 6 weeks ago and still haven't received anything. I've also tried mailing [EMAIL PROTECTED], but haven't heard anything back from there either. Si

Mhh ... ^_^ But seriously, I love those buttons wich switch colors to standard ones and remove backgrounds. Or with one click you switch off all the images, quite usefull when someone has more than 750k worth of pictures on his frontpage. Opera is a small, rather fast and simple browser and nothing more, that is what i like about it. To move back on a sort of Sam related topic, Martijn has finished another version of his Spectrum emulator (you know harddisc, CD-rom etc.), and has made a Atom-compatible version of Stefan Drissens mod-player wich i am currently testing. And we started somehow working on a rather naughty demo :) I should put those on my soon (that could take another month or two) to be announced new website, really :) -- Robert van der Veeke, aka RJV Graphics [EMAIL PROTECTED] Currently listening to : The Phantom Menace OST

The Lyra III doesn't work
The Lyra III from NVG doesn't work. Can somebody put there a working version? The problem is that lyra3.dsk.gz file is either not a GZip file or contains neither DSK nor Tar file.

Soory about that, it looks like macgzip burped[1] when I uploaded the original file... I'll put a new copy in the incoming directory. Andrew [1] It includes a short header before the file, with filetype/resource data in it, which in incompatible with anything except MacOS.

Getting those encrypted games in a SIM Coupe-able format
Hi, My brand new copy of SAM Elite is sitting mostly unplayed due to the continuing deterioration of my SAM power supply and so on. The disk uses some crazy format, so neither samdisk (the useless gives up on bad sectors or the DJGPP does all sectors but crashes in dos boxes versions) type program will convert it. It has been brought to my attention that such games can be converted for .dsk-able use, so I am wondering if anyone has SAM Elite (just to make entirely clear : the game, not the silly cut down computer) as a usable .dsk and is willing to send it to me? I can take a picture of the box and disk next to the date on a newspaper or something and scan that to prove I own it if they want. I'm really not a pirate. No matter what David Ledbury says! -Thomas

Re: Manual
From: Robert van der Veeke [EMAIL PROTECTED] HTML was doing fairly well until Microsoft and Netscape screwed it up - as soon as you get commercial interest, you get splits in the standard. Netscape added some screwey frames support, and Microsoft added scrolling text and fonts. We also added XML, XSL and CSS. To be completely accurate, we invented them and gave them to the W3C as an open spec. So, please, don't lump us in with the Other Browser. At least we've publicly apologized for the MARQUEE tag. Netscape haven't for BLINK, CENTER, LAYER, etc etc etc. They have a bastardized version of java in their VM - even much more so than MS's JVM (which is only missing RMI); at least we didn't change the semantics of how the core packages work! They have JavaScript, which is a bastardized version of ECMAScript that they won't fix. Sheesh Si (Not speaking for MS) ___ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web. Visit http://www.msn.com
