Most of my school lunchtimes were taken up playng chocks away, sometimes in 2 player ;).

Riscos, at least back then was very much god awful, horid to look at and use (I cant imagine its changed that much) . Nearest comparable os is Geos i guess ;).

Ive had emulation on my pc for some time so i can still play those old games at home ;).

I remember getting kicked out of the computer room one lunch time after using Pendown3 text to speech function ;)  Just couldnt resist haveing it say sware words at the time , but unlike me, do remember to turn the volume down on the monitors first :)

I do still have quite a few of my games, discopiers and stuff. Ive used my amiga to image some of the disks to use on my emu.
