From: dave kechb.demon.co.uk (David Long) Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,comp.os.cpm Subject: Amstrad CPC newsgroup Followup-To: news.groups Date: 25 Mar 1994 11:15:59 -0500 Organization: KECHB School Lines: 20 Sender: tale uunet.uu.net Approved: tale uunet.uu.net Message-ID: <comp.sys.cpc-RFD1 uunet.uu.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: rodan.uu.net Due to a considerable increase in interest in the Amstrad CPC series of machines, Marco Vieth (author of CPCEMU - a CPC emulator for the PC) and myself are interested in setting up a newsgroup devoted to this topic. The proposed name is "comp.sys.cpc". This will cover every subject related to the CPC and will not be moderated. I would appreciate a response from anyone with comments on this matter. Send follow-ups to "news.announce.newgroups" and "comp.os.cpm". The CPC is an 8-bit machine, three models of which were produced by the British company Amstrad. It is based around a Z80 processor and has 64k of directly accessible memory, which can be expanded to 576k. The CPC Emulator is available in the Emulators directory of the Simtel20 archives/mirrors as CPCEMU09.ZIP. It requires a 386 or above with VGA to run. -- +---------------------------------------------+ | Those were some words of wisdom (?) from... | | David Long: dave kechb.demon.co.uk | +---------------------------------------------+
