During the period 1987-1995 I developed several applications for the CP/M-80 and the CPC. To name a few:  Hotel Manager, Technical Dictionary, Basket Game Editor Tool, Music Metronome, Doctor's Database and Mission1990  (a Magnetic Scroll's type text adventure game). However, I never managed to release any of them! In 2002 I fitted a 3.5” and a 5.25” floppy drive in my old CPC, purchased a few external roms, some ram expansion, a printer, an AMX mouse, a CTM monitor an RS232C and a reset button. Thus the new CPC era had begun! In 2005 I released my first demo, the Monkey Island II, a 600 KB screen demo on the basis of the well known famous adventure game.

My CPC still fully active

I live in Athens and I was born in 1974. In my opinion, the CPC6128 was the 8-bit micro with the biggest potential because of its CP/M-80 business applications, its colorful overscan games/demos and its expansion capabilities. Inspired and motivated by the greek Pixel magazine (see N.60, page 32, CAT problems), I still develop (MS-DOS like) programs for the CP/M-80 and the CPC6128 just for fun and in order to deal with some of my everyday problems (budget and car maintenance monitoring). I like/prefer single tasking computers because they allow you to focus on your work without being distracted by messages, emails, reminders, notifications, other processes etc, etc.

My CPC releases pertain to:

2005, The The Monkey Island II Demo demo (AmsDOS).
2005-2021, COSMOS, the personal cost monitoring system which also includes ASCII Tools (CP/M 2.2).
2024 June, On File database management system, 50 years anniversary of CP/M-80 (CP/M 2.2).
2024 June, No One Like You Demo, 40 years anniversary of CPC (AmsDOS).
2025, June, On File and On File Register (CP/M plus), pending....
