I still say the 6809E was a better processor than the Z80 in the spectrum. I however bought a spectrum in the main for the joy of Elite. I got to Extremely Deadly, and Found the Cloaking Device. Shame no one has put there mind to recreating a game like Elite... If anyone has got this game running please tell me how you did it Thanks Ricktake a look at http://www.geocities.com/dmalykhanov/utils/elite.html IIRC that's how I got elite running under RH7.3
You can also play Frontier First Encounters on linux, using the modded and extensively bug-fixed code John Jordan put together, which can be found at http://www.jaj22.demon.co.uk/ There are also a load of elite sites still about, such as http://www.alioth.net and http://galnet.hosted.doosh.net which have info or links to info on how to get elite and its sequels running on a variety of platforms -- James jamesk[at]homeric[dot]co[dot]uk "I think your making them mad."
