this afternoon i realised something? after getting back from coys festival which was full of old gp cars etc and was sponsored by miocroprose i realised that sierra should have used it as a perfect base to sell gpl, its full of the correct audience and if they had sent us a few sierra and papyrus banners and some money to rent a few generators and a tent we could have marketted GPL and maybe sold hundreds ourselves, brought our pc's along and maybe connected them on a LAN we could have had a network playing gpl and showing it to the public. they would have been impressed! so sierra if your listening MAKE GPL2!!! about another historic launch and contact me to promote it at major historic car meetings around europe!!!!!! maybe we could do it next year with gpl anyway (if loads of us club together a tent, generotors and the market stall could be brilliant fun, mix that with beer in the evening and it would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! anyohne interested???? coys next year??? silverstone please reply with your views on this idea rubinio

Andrew, I just checked out your site, very cool! I can already imagine the bar bets I'm going to win with some if this wonderfully trivial information<vbg>. don [|]-(_)-[|]

But GPL is advertised on the side of one of the bins at Silverstone!! :-) Brilliant! How could they fail to shift every last copy?
