Amstrad bought Sinclair lock, stock and barrel in 1986. The posting URL
I posted up was from one of the people from Amstrad and someone on
comp.sys.sinclair

Okay, we have three camps here.

1. Don't do it, naughty restrictions.
2. As long as Amstrad say do it, do it (Tom).
3. Go with it, I'm happy (Greg).

Can I have a clear, one voice as to what I have to do here. I don't have
a problem contacting Amstrad (though how quick they'll reply is another
matter!), but considering Greg has said he's happy, is there any milage
in doing it?

TTFN
