Topspeed errors

Was 25's for Oaks after maiden. It stayed at that price for a while, as everyone was saying "yeah, it did it well, but what did it beat?", then those in behind started winninng and running well. So unsure if it was those winners, or the trial that dropped it to 12's.

I was using Supercal4 on an Amstrad 286 when I compiled those. I could go to the newsagents at 5:30am during the winter months, come back with the sporting life, make a coffee and the thing still hadn't warmed up enough to start. I can still hear the sound as it tried to kick in "err err err err err".
It's actually in my garage. I had it shipped to Australia for prosperity. :)
Supercalc? that's going back a bit !
That's made me remember using Asasyas a 'while' ago.....
 
It was (is) the 1640, not the 2286, even worse. I sometimes wonder if it would still power up. Wasps had made small mud nests on it the last time I looked.

I remember I used to go for a cup of coffee while the 386 I had at work used to boot up & fire off the progs I had in my startup.

If you want to revisit Supercalc you can get it here.
