Nearer to 300

I saw a link here in a post on G+, had a quick look for 3D Slime and saw a thread saying the board was nearly at 300 members so I thought it churlish not to register.
I still have my QL, but it hasn't been powered for many years. It's a JS ROM that I bought from Boots for £150 and got a Sinclair TV bundled in as well

I spent a large amount of my youth bashing away at it, networking with my Spectrums and I had a program published in Sinclair QL World. Unfortunately at Uni I spurned my Sinclair history (81, couple of Spectrums, 512k QL) for a loud and brash Amiga A500.
Now I still have a soft spot for them all (although I still maintain with vigour that the Speccy was a much better machine than the C64) and I'm still in software for my day job. Sinclair is probably responsible for that.
Regards,
Dave

A warm welcome to the forum. Time to dust off the QL and fire it up? We have lots of speccy fans on here too!

Welcome to the forums - for a minute I thought maybe you were the author of 3D Slime... It is preserved, but still subject to copyright and we cannot find the copyright holder or what happened to the publisher
What program did you have published for Sinclair QL World, and more importantly, can we have your permission to add it to the Sinclair QL Homepage please (as freeware) ?

It was called The Business Game and it was in an issue with a guy dressed in black swinging on a rope on the cover and you are welcome to it

There was also a Spectrum client (networked with an Interface 1) but the source to that is long gone.

It was this issue
