My Trinity Ethernet Interface was first released for the #SAMCoupe in 2007. There's been a few updates since! If you've got the original DOS (1.5t beta 5) that supports up to 1GB cards, there is beta 6 (from 2014) that supports up 32GB. It's on the coverdisk with SAM Revival issue 26.

For example, would you hold back against buying an issue of the magazine with a game you liked the look of that's re-released on the coverdisk, in the hope that an original appears on the likes of eBay? Had someone say that once before.

More than 26 years ago I remember getting a little program called "Niall" (non-intelligent artificial language learner) on an Amiga coverdisk, which was basically the same idea as LLMs, just without pre-training or the ability to become large.

SAM Coupe networking via the MIDI hardware. Back in the late 90s I wrote a networked Pac-Man style game. Bugfixed it a couple of years ago when the Retro Computer Museum had 3 SAMs set up. Will have to put it on a future SAM Revival coverdisk. I also make network cables to link two SAMs together.

A modern #C64 game and one that iirc was given away for free on this month's Zzap! coverdisk. If you haven't already - give this a go, it's a great take on the "paint the floor" platformer; nicely executed with some neat touches and high production. Yes!

Great clip! I first played Worms on an Amiga coverdisk. I wore the demo out but never had the full title on the platform. I've recently picked up a big box original! The Amiga is where computing began for me, and Worms is definitely a stand out title in my personal gaming history.
