Back to the future

Hi folks,

I'm returning to the QL after a break of ~30 years. :shock:

Shame it never took off because QDOS (for all it's bugs) had some pretty revolutionary features.

Cheers!

Matthew

Welcome back Matthew - many of us were involved with the QL in the 80s and the community is still going strong - QDOS went on to be morphed into other things - Minerva and SMSQ/e (replacement QL operating systems), and SMS2 (can't remember what that was sold for).

SMSQ/e continues to be developed today :)

Welcome. Haven't been here long myself but it's a wealth of information and friendly QL enthusiasts, some of whom I've bumped into in other places.

Welcome back Wrangler, I too am a returner after some 20 odd years and find the QL above all other retro machines the most frustrating and the most fun.
