Howdy fellas,
it's been quite some time, huh? So I got quite some make up work to do...
Most important...
Lion,
in the near future, mails to my address might be bounced. I already got a new e-mail address. So could you tell me again how to subscribe to the list? My new e-mail address is
chicken@redseven.de
Fourgee...
Happy B-Day! Wow, 20 years... So in this list you're one of the young
`uns. By the way, I'll turn 25 on December 11th. I AM expecting lots of Birthday greetings and presents.
TLC...
Congrats! So you made it! You da man! I'll be a drop out soon... But wait,
wasn't B.G. a drop out, too.
TM...
Bulletin boards on plus/4... In the late `80s there was a mailbox system software by GUSS DATA CONNECTION. It was based on a real time clock by the same company. I have never seen it in action, though I still have the report in some old magazine.
LUCA...
Well, I haven't been able to do anything on plus/4 due to my search for the meaning of life. Details in private mails... However, I'm still planning on the realease of BOM Megademo for 1541 drives. (Whenever I'll find those disks!) Since I did most of the decoding ages ago it shouldn't be too much work. Furthermore, I got also an unreleased version of SOCCER BOSS+ (Bug fixed, some nice extras...).
Claude...
Why do you want to reproduce plus/4s? Can't get enough in OZ? I really think there are still enough working plus/4s around to get a machine for everyone who really wants to have one. I think especially in Hungary you might get some plus/4s for less than OZ$120.
Some years ago there was some guy/company in Germany who asked Commodore for a license to reproduce 150 plus/4 compatible machine. CBM agreed,
though the machines where never built. Solder might know more about this.
Cameron...
Remember that 264'er picture... I scanned it and mailed it on disk to Marko. So you might get it from him!
Commodore telephones...
Remember when I told you that there was a commodore shredder and a type writer for sale in a super market? Three weeks ago, I was shopping at
19.30h at LIDL, which is a favorite chick pick up - Just go to the cheese section and say "Wow, this cheese doesn't have any fat!" And a bunch of girls will jump you! - when I suddenly saw a commodore logo. First, I pinched myself to check if I was dreaming... They had new commodore telephones for 40 DM. The best thing was, they had exactly the plus/4
greyish/black color! I was really close to buying one. But then I decided to invest in fat free cheese :) J.K. I bought SUPER MARIO BROS. DELUXE for my GAME BOY instead... The next day, the phones were sold out :( Well,
they weren't "real" CBMs anyway.
This might be my last posting for a while... Big changes are coming up! So guys, keep this list alive!
See ya around,
Chicken
