I used to do that, only I started on an Acorn Atom. On several occasions I failed to record the program on a C90 before accidently knocking the 'king power plug out the back of it and losing the lot !

I'm having some difficulty programming a Sony remote control - so definitely geek free. I am not a geek for some other reasons, but I don't know you well enough to tell.

BTW if anyone knows how to get one of these b@stards to drive Sky+ . . . I would appreciate the assistance.

I just fix things and train people these days.

I used to do that on an Amstrad CPC 464, then have to spend hours debugging the fecking code. Luckily at 16 i discovered booze and birds so i was saved untill i finished uni.
