RISC World

Competition

Win copies of the latest books from Alligata media

Last issue we offered the latest versions of Alligata Media's Basic V: A Dabhand Guide and The ARM Assembly guide to one luck reader.

We had a surprisingly large number of entries. We asked one simple question. All our readers had to do was tell us the name the author of Basic V: A Dabhand Guide, who was formerly the editor of Acorn Publisher magazine.

The correct answer was of course Mike Williams, and the winner of the prize is Julian Benton from the sunny, rain soaked Vale of Glamorgan. Bad luck to all the other entrants but well done for getting the answer right, assuming you did of course!

Talking about getting the answer right one RISCWorld reader deserves a special mention, so congratulations to Grahame Polley for this slight senior moment..

"John Cartmell was formally the editor of the Acorn Publisher".

Just to correct this, John Cartmell is still the editor of Acorn Publisher, so not only did Grahame unfortunately get the question wrong, but he also got the answer to the question we didn't ask wrong. The correct answer would have also been the right answer, Mike Williams used to be the editor of Acorn Publisher and he also wrote Basic V A Dabhand Guide.
