Fwd: Jim Drew interview
« on: May 16, 2007, 12:17:50 AM »
-- Forwarded message --

Just wanted to let everyone know that Nate Lawson (http://root.org/~nate) recently conducted an e-mail interview with Jim Drew of Microcode solutions.  Jim was a famous figure in the Commodore days, and this interview fills in some of the gaps of previous interviews. He wrote Copy II 64 V3.0, SuperCard as well as several other copy
programs and utilities in the C64 days, and of course the famous "Emplant" of the Amiga days.

I know Jim is a polarizing figure for some of you, and there are many stories related to that.  We didn't get into any of those things because they have already been hashed out endlessly.  It does touch on issues relating to Mike J. Henry and others that is interesting.
