The later SimCoupe betas can open .td0 files (read-only), so they can be
copied across to something more compatible fairly easily. I found some
Russian docs that covered just about enough to work out how it was done.

Many things where created for SAM and are hold back because of the 'respect'
and while time passes
things get lost or will get bad as floppies won't live forever. Then things
that where created with enthiousasm
and took many hours of work will simply disappear.
However, I do take your point that floppy disks have a limited
lifespan, so we should try to make sure that everything is imaged and
catalogued. Perhaps we could maintain a list of what images exist -
not necessarily to release the images right now, but to make sure that
everything will still

Hi Gavin.
I full agree with you and all those, who are thinking in the same way.
And I offer you my help, as I can send you a list of my collected SAM
stuff of more than thousands programs of all sort I collected in many
years (worldwide) to show what was programmed for the SAM. If you want,
Gavin,
You are right about this. I have spent many years with my SAM and every now
and then get nostalgic to look at some of the stuff that was produced for
it. An archive would only represent a nostalgic look at some of the stuff I

Agree with Gavin - it's all well and good saying 'wait for the right time'
but when will that time be? 5 more years, maybe 10? In the PC industry, that
is a lifetime.
Most of the people who wrote these things will have no interest in an old
