- Backbone is on the CU Amiga (or is it Amiga Format) CD this month. I
- got three of them this month and was getting some AMOS stuff from
- them. So far, I have about 65Mb of new AMOS stuff to add to the

- The F1 route is not a ticket to fame and fortune, as is releasing any

- Contact phil wilkinson at phil@ware5d.demon.co.uk and get him to take
- a look at the demo, i daresay he has it on CD, and get his opinion. He
- will also give you a list of changes to make etc.
