This Site Contains

Most (all?) of the pages in this site are dedicated to computers and/or operating systems which unkind people might describe as obsolete:

• Sinclair Spectrum items:
  • Two Windows 95 startup screens (4.5k).
  • A collection of Spectrum icons, which you are free to use in your own web pages &c.
  • Jet Set Willy 128k v0.04HL7
• The CP/M operating system;
• The GEM GUI for the IBM PC;
• The Amstrad PCW computer / wordprocessor.
• Amstrad's early XT clones, and other vintage PCs.
• There is some Unix software related to some of the above systems.

Since I am interested in railway preservation, I might as well point you at:

• Railway preservation - specifically, the Bluebell Line.

I designed this page using PNGs instead of GIFs because of the obnoxious Unisys patent (now expired). I'm not racing to change back to GIFs.

Apart from the PNGs, this page is written to be readable on as many browsers as possible. People who make pages only viewable under one or two browsers have greatly misunderstood the purpose of the Web. Having said that, my current favourite browser is Mozilla.
