There is something of a communications gap here. I bought an Amstrad because
it was cheap and because I thought that there'd be lots of good CP/M software
available. It turns out to be quite difficult to get the stuff, I've never
seen anything about Z-system on it until recently in this newsgroup, and
even the UK CP/M user group aren't very helpful as they have trouble with
the disks (they will write them - but no guarantees that they'll be readable),
and the magazines are full of Loco-stuff.

As most of the magazines want more contributors maybe Jay should have tried
writing an article on Z-system to enlighten the poor Loco-souls out there ?
Mind you it's probably a bit late now.

Tim.
