Disappointing response to the new Software Serial card. A lot of work went into that, I was hoping there might have been a bit more interest. I guess those days are gone, the state the world is in right now, people have other priorities, and things have moved on. Oh well.

Tish was a remarkable photographer who catalogued Thatcher's Britain with an unflinching eye. She's the subject of a recent documentary which I urge everyone to watch.
Tish
Tish Murtha used her camera to celebrate overlooked working-class lives and to fight for social change in 1980s Britain. Her daughter, Ella, uncovers her poignant story.

The SAM Coupe has a great keyboard, 72 keys including function/number pad. As membranes fail I released full mechanical keyboards to give the ultimate replacement with a choice of keyswitch types. I also produced a 'Prototype Tribute' keyboard to give your #SAMCoupe a unique look. www.samcoupe.com
Standard Mechanical Keyboard for the SAM Coupe, with which you would use your original keycaps. Limited Edition 'Prototype Tribute' mechanical keyboard for the SAM Coupe, styled like the handmade keyboards on the five prototype SAMs.

Dressing room photos of my parents wearing black Javanese-style wedding outfits, with "cunduk mentul" hairpins for my mom.

Black is a classic color worn by brides and grooms in Javanese wedding, representing earth-related qualities like humility, strength, magnanimity, and wisdom.

I’m very sad to hear the news that one of the all-time great automotive journalists & broadcasters, Quentin Willson, has died, aged 68. He was clever, engaging & friendly, & we’ll not see his like again.

Finally took the plunge with machine code on the SAM Coupe in 1994 after buying an assembler for half price at a computer show. £14.95 well spent! Took to Z80 asm immediately and the rest is history!
