Douglas Adams day job was working on the DR Who
production staff.
That's the real Dr. Who, of course... not the
God-awful remake :-)
Hey!
I like the remake - I'm a big fan of Rose
(Billie Piper) - and there are several things
that make it (slightly) on-topic:
1) The computers in the school episode
2) which also happened to have K-9 in it!
I was also a fan of Ace from the early 90's
when she was Sylvester Mccoys sidekick.
Just to make sure this is on-topic though, I
just lost my 2nd Amiga 600. I turned it on
on Saturday and heard that dreaded click sound
I got when i burnt out my 1st A600 :(
I can only assume (at present) that the floppy
drives are becoming really sensitive. I don't
recall hearing it do it's familiar "tick" sound
when checking for a disk, but I didn't leave it
switched on for more than 2 seconds.
I guess I'll get a spare internal A600 floppy
drive online somewhere and replace it. I still
haven't gotten around to seeing exactly what
failed on my 1st A600 yet either....
Been delayed by the arrival of 30 more Amiga
CD's - specifically German demo discs and
several Aminet discs :)
I'll get my CD32 out tomorrow and start going
through those discs.
