The Emulation Competition

Do you want fame, fortune, and a copy of 6502Em and Z80Em all for free? Warm Silence Software have very kindly donated a copy of their two top commercial emulators worth £15 each, as prizes for the winners of the competition! The winner and runner up will each receive a copy of one of the emulators allowing you to revisit the early days of classic home-gaming on your Acorn. Don't worry if you already own one, if you win, you'll receive the other.

Entry to the competition is twofold, firstly you must fill in the form below, answering all the questions (truthfully - lying helps no one), the results of the questionnaire will be published later, and passed onto emulator authors to encourage them to continue development - it gives anyone a real boost to find that loads of people are using their software! Even if you don't want to enter the competition, please fill the form in anyway, since it will bring in a lot of information as to the direction emulation on the Acorn should be going. Just fill in the form, and further details will be given on the next page.

Note: None of the personal information (name, email etc.) will be distributed.
