Unregistered user Has anyone looked at MD's newsroom lately?

It looks like Omega will be with us soon!

I know the wait's been painful but I think it'll be worth it.

MD have my sympathy, several times I've tried to devlop a Z80 based system and had a lot of trouble. Omega is considerably more complex (stating the obvious!!), so I can understand that they've had teething troubles with it.

Unregistered user Unfortunately it's been coming RSN for about a year, so I tend not to get too excited about such things any more. When the box is actually on people's desks, then I'll believe it.

MicroDigital have one on their desk, and they're testing it.

Unregistered user Only Microdigital can do that. Shouldn't they be posting more news this week? There's not much of this week left, so they'll have to get a moove on.

Unregistered user Have you considered moving to a different calendar, say the Chinese one? The year might end at a more convenient time for a certain tummy then.

We are not ganging up on you!


(Rich, I might have to join you for that snapping session. Maybe we could contact the tabloids and generate a bit of RISCOS publicity? You know where he lives...?)

Did you also get counselling after typing in that foul checklist Rich?;-)

Indeed it was intercepted. Although it's not as bad as the one at uni, which censored the word a**e.

I take it then, that f***, s***, b****cks, w**ker, and c*** are all censored?

That's alright. Morse code is now officially a dead language.

It wood be quite hard to get the level of discussion in this thread to go down any further.

I'm sure the intelligent conversation in this thread is a shining example to forums everywhere.

Well, in a thread with such a ridiculosly self-contradictory title, what can you expect?

Unregistered user I spoke to Micro digital last week about the Omega. They are still testing it thourghly to ensure that it will be as reliable as possible. They don't want to release the machine and then find that their phone is red hot because customer's are phoning in with complaints.

Personally I would prefer to wait longer for a reliable computer than receive one that is unreliable.

Well said, although it is a bit annoying! Hopefully it will be soon though. And maybe it will be the jolt the market has been waiting for.

And the guy who started the BBC Nudes 24 thread I contibuted to has been banned. Looking at this thread, what would it take to be banned from here? "I think RISC OS smells of poo"?
