    Yea I guess that would be right, it would have to be more of a flowing piece. Sounds interesting....

    I never saw this topic before, i just read it now!

    the Commodore book "On the Edge : The spectacular rise and fall of Commodore",
    it was also in other topic.

    The book is on Amigakit:
    http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/...roducts_id=368

    So do you think it will be easy for me to read it in english? I dont have it here in Portugal.
    In the past i read about 4 or 5 books in English, but they where adventure or novels, with no difficult language with no difficult terms. Does this book have difficult tecnical terms in english?

    I think we should do this! I have really good writings skills and stuff and I can talk 'word' with the kids of today.
    In all seriousness tho, I think its a good idea - maybe I could contribute a cover image or two as thats all I'm really good at!

    Got my copy today, along with another storming book "Digital Retro" (Another awsome book detailing almost every home computer of the golden era, Oric, Aquarius, Cpc464.. anyone?)

    Only just started reading them but already its proving to be amazing. what it must have been like to be thoes guys developing all that technology.. And then have it all be nigh-on forgotten about and to get virtually written out of the history books...

    Well, Mr Jobs , Mr Gates , etc....

    We wont forget and we know what really happend.

    Glad you are enjoying the books.

    It is so true. Apple and M$ are living off of the ideas of others who got swallowed up and forgotten along the way.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    You could say, although I expect most of you wouldn't...
