I guess it's a bit late to be a newbie.  I bought my Yaroze back in
1997, but it has taken this long to find time to start playing with
it.  Wow, that was a mistake.  The tools aren't very Win2K friendly,
are they?!  Well, I've found a replacement for siocons.exe that
doesn't whinge about the COM port being locked, and I've managed to
download and run a few programs, so the next thing is to start coding.
I want to make my company logo dance around the screen in time with
whatever audio CD I put in the Yaroze.  Sounds possible, from what
I've read of the docs thus far.

Anyway, if anyone still reads this group, and fancies breathing a bit
of life into it, please reply!  If I get some feedback I'll keep
posting on my progress.

Best wishes,
Ross

p.s. I'm a web developer, live in Lincolnshire, have short hair and
don't drink coffee.  I'm a refugee from many failed dot coms, and I
fancied playing with the Yaroze because web work is getting a bit
same-old for me.
