Re: Norm's Blog and QDOSMSQ Web Site

Just to let you know, my qdosmsq Wiki is now, temporarily, offline. My hosting bill was up for renewal so I cancelled it.

I have backups of the site.

Any email addresses @qdosmsq.dunbar-it.co.uk will no longer work. You can email me at qdosmsq at dunbar-it.co.uk now.

Cheers,
Norm.

Re: SMSQ/E on Atari

I found an old QL-Toady article [...] Typo or intention? ;) Hi Peter, many years ago, I spelt QL Today incorrectly as QL Toady . Dilwyn, bless him, picked up on it and from then on, the magazine was known -- at least to us -- as QL Toady ! :D I was pleased to see it live on in @Tofro's post. Cheers...
