Sad news indeed....

Triggered my interest in Computing in the 1970's, leading to my simple, programmable, digital display computers, Apple 2e, various Sinclair (Timex) computers and various Commodore computers, etc...leading to my various Commodore Amiga computers, and finally my various "Windows" PC's....!

Happy memories of all our hours spent "Bedroom Programming" in the 1970's/1980's.... :)...!

Paul......Back to BASIC....Microsoft v Fozzersoft.... ;D...!

...who won?.... ::)... ;D... ;D...!
