Subject: Amstrad information
Mail to <rgssxr@abcom.att.com> bounced, so here's some useful addresses:
I've lost your message about Amstrads, but the basic position is that they
are extremely common in the UK and almost unknown in the US.
You can hang 5.25" drives off them without much trouble, and also (I think)
do the other things you wanted. Oh yes, I think there *is* an IBM version
of Locoscript, for the PC-compatible Amstrads.
Your best bet is to subscribe to one of several UK magazines; try
8000 Plus
The Old Barn
Somerton

or:
Amstrad PCW
116-120 Goswell Road
London
England EC1 7RD
If you didn't want to subscribe, you could just buy a couple of back-
numbers; they are full of ads and so on.
Good luck - Will
