I even sent you 5 Pounds back in 95 but they came back

Hardly early, in 1994 ;) . For most of the summer of 1994 we were getting up and running on another Falcon / ST project, but the target was to go commercial and since Starball brought in less than £1000 it clearly wasn't going to be viable. PC it had to be, so I spent the last of my SERC grant buying one the week before I left uni at the end of the summer and got the port done.

There was a pc version? So you joined the dark side very early :)

Yeah, I always felt I should have made more effort in that regard. In the very early days I sent a few acknowledgements but when it became very clear that it wasn't going to be enough money to live on it was put on the back burner while we rushed through the port of the PC version. (Which didn't make enough to live on either, but it was still getting on for 30x what we got from the ST :) ).

Don't send anything to that address - the PO box is very, very long gone :) .
