WELL DONE, THIS IS THE HIDDEN ARTICLE!
======================================@2
Was it worth it? Probably not! What I will tell you is to read the
scroll text at the bottom of the screen and you may win something.

A little plug here for a couple of thingy-me-bobs I have just
released. The first is Punter, and as you may guess it's about
horse racing/betting. I am quite proud of some of the horse form
formulas. This is Punter's first public showing (V1.0) and needs a
LOT of work.. I am using Andrew Campbell's strategy of releasing
an early version to see if anybody likes it, if not it will be
scrapped. If I continue adding the stacks of features I have planned
for it then Punter will eventually end up as Licenceware, probably.
Incidentally, I am having trouble doing a decent graphical race. The
horse bobs and animations are passable, but I need some help with
graphics and coding to make the race of a good enough standard to
justify it being Licenceware, Anyone? Punter should be on an Assasins
disk soon. It's in 17 Bits catalogue now.

My other release also needs work on it but it is a useful little
address label printer and database called ADDRESSBASE. I wrote it
specifically for keeping F1 programmers/customers data until I realized
I would be breaking the data protection act (up to £3000 fine) which
costs £100 to registar, I think I will stick to good old exercise
books. Plenty of non-business users should find it useful though, it's
pretty stable. I have never lost any data using it.
@3
Punter and Addressbase are available from F1 PD at 99p per disk + 25p
postage or £2 the pair postage free.

Do you think you have what it takes to be an Amoszine editor?
We need reliable fast moving members for Amoszine. You invent the
job you want to do and tell us about it and you'll probably get the job!
Don't forget Amoszine is going to be THE Amos mag to read and everyone
is going to want in, so as an early supporter of Amoszine now is your
chance.

Paul Overy, author of High Octane Turbo (See review and Swap Scroll
article) is desperately seeking a quality musician, need I say more?
Paul's address is in his article Super Swap Scroll.
@3
Some bad news. Remember my Amoszine Project? well I have had to scrap
that idea for a number of reasons, but mainly because I couldn't get
enough people together to make it work. On top of that my work load
is leaving me precious little time, I've forgotten what my kids look
like! So lets just say the project on hold for now.
@2
Right, that's your lot. See you next issue's hidden article when I hope
to have a lot more time for a longer chat.
SEE Ya!
