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. I still develop (MS-DOS like) programs for the CP/M-80 and the CPC just for fun and in order to deal with some of my everyday problems (budget and car maintenance monitoring). Notice, that the Pixel magazine (see N.60, page 32, CAT problems) was the inspirational guide for all this work. My releases pertain to:

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