Re: Preservation Tools - Submissions Feedback/Q/A
Hi @druellan I see you listed Cesar Astudillo in the role of "code", but I wonder if he was intended to do the music. Is this role correct? Yep, this is no mistake - It is absolutely intended. It may sound strange but it's been reported like that by Astudillo himself in some interview. I t...

Encyclopedia Britannica Anglotutor Test
Hi all! Just realized that Alessandro recently created entries for the Anglotutor language course (entries 42239-42246) and uploaded TZXs for each one of the installments. Kudos to Alessandro and all the people involved! Please note that volumes 1-4 (entries 42239 to 42243) were published as part of...

Re: The Brick
Whoops! Sorry - you're right, of course! It was preserved by Mode2 and Metalbrain - we uploaded it to the SPA2 archive back in 2018! Strangely I didn't see it the other day and therefore looked for it in our backlog . Obviously I couldn't find it there since it was already in the archive! Sorry for ...

Re: uMIA program and uMIA publisher
I already knew of this one (which in fact seems to be called File Disk, and is yet to be preserved).
There are a handful of programs of Silog which are not yet listed in Spectrum Computing.

Re: uMIA: DSC-50 Sequencer by FPS Soft (1984)
I don't know more about this publisher or anything. It was an outstanding preservation work from Alberto Cuesta, but it's rare as hell. I've not seen any review in Spanish magazines or whatever. I noticed though that there is some in-program typo ("Developped by" instead of "Developed...

Re: Spanish uMIAs from Micro-World
Hi Iván, Very interesting again! The ad states World-Micro, S.A. as the name of the publisher, not Micro-World. Indeed I just realized that label 9696 should be renamed like this, so I made a fix request through the label change form. Please note that it is not the same company than Micro World, S.A...

There is more information about Comercial 4 at Todospectrum issue 09, pages 16 to 19. And the review you pointed to is located at MicroHobby issue 25, page 25.

Re: uMIA games from the Investronica/ZX contest
There is a homebrew game called Taipam which was developed by J. Bayon. It was recovered and published here:
https://trastero.speccy.org/2004/200904/200904.htm
It might be that same Taipan that was mentioned there?

Re: uMIAS from Microgesa (Spain) in a magazine
Hi Iván!
One of those (Curso de contabilidad II, also called Contable-2) was recently preserved by Alberto Cuesta (yet to be published).
The rest of them are still MIA.

Hello, That's not entirely precise. The coloured version of the game was indeed recovered in 2005 and published through speccy.org, but it was released comercially back then. There was no individual release of it - instead, it saw the light of day within the compilation "Pack 5 Éxitos de Opera&...

Hi, The above discussion raises another question to me.

They shared some characteristics though: - Sold in newstands - N...

Hi Einar, I'd say it's not a covertape but an electronic magazine. Not long ago I found this advertising leaflet somewhere on the Internet. I don't see this as conclusive proof but it seems to point in that direction. I'd say it was sold as a standalone cassette accompanied by a backing cardboard. I...
