I'll be taking a sabattical from Speccy stuff for a few months - perhaps the whole of 2010 - whilst I explore more mainstream avenues. Would like to rediscover what life was like *without* having anything Xmas related going on in the background.
Having said that, you'd probably be best placing a bet on the 1990 chapter coming out next year... although if it does, it definitely won't be as grandiose as the Xmas Special...
How many more chapters will there be? I take it they'll be one for 1991 and possibly 1992?
...it's been probably about 20 years since I did anything constructive with BASIC, and I'm yet to do anything with MC.
I find BASIC is handy for Rapid Application Design, but I usually end up replacing most of the routines with machine code. I suspect we'd all be better off using z88dk, writing in C and creating our own reusable libraries. I'll let you know how I get on with that. :)
