Backbone is on the CU Amiga (or is it Amiga Format) CD this month. I
got three of them this month and was getting some AMOS stuff from
them. So far, I have about 65Mb of new AMOS stuff to add to the
library, as soon as i get a keyboard.

The F1 route is not a ticket to fame and fortune, as is releasing any
software. The product will be reviewed in all the Amiga magazines, and
only if the people think they need it, will they buy it.
Contact phil wilkinson at phil@ware5d.demon.co.uk and get him to take
a look at the demo, i daresay he has it on CD, and get his opinion. He
will also give you a list of changes to make etc.
