- Welcome to PowerBase V3.00 the best and probably final version of
- POWERful dataBASE system written by me (Steven Rennocks).
-
- I have produced many other high quality programs which all started out
- as programs that I wrote for myself and so I continued to improve them
- until I was advised to release them. Some of my best known programs
- include :-
-
- Formula One Challenge - V2.00 - Licenced to Deja Vu Software (LPD 44)
- Power Planner - V1.10 - Licenced to Deja Vu Software (LPD 65)
- Spectra - Licenced to Deja Vu Software (LPD 78)
- All-Square - Licenced to Deja Vu Software (LPD ?)
- Word Power - Shareware
-
- This is how these programs are marketed at the time of writing 20/04/1992,
- but this may of course change (contact me for details.)
-
- Details of other projects and updated versions can be found in the
- Other projects file on this disk.
-
- At the time of writing this (See above) I am a 17 year old student
- about to take "A" levels in Physics , Maths , Economics and General
- Studies. I plan to continue my education and take a BSC degree in
- Computer Science at Staffordshire Polytechnic/University.
-
- I started programming in 1984 at the age of 9 when I bought a Sinclair
- Spectrum with a huge 16k of memory! I then bought a 48K spectrum
- followed by a Spectrum +2. In 1988 I bought an Amstrad 6128 and then
- less than four months after this I bought an Amiga 500 , which I then
- upgraded to an A500 plus in November 1991.
-
- I began by typing in program listing from magazines and modifying them
- to do or operate as I wanted. I was soon writing my own games from
- scratch. Since owning an A500 I have moved to producing utilities and
- application programs such as PowerBase , but despite this my best
- selling program is still a game : Formula One Challenge.
