=== CPCWiki updates ===*When the CPC 664 was being developed, Sugar was already looking (and hinting publicly!) at the CPC 6128.*The [[472|CPC 472]] was a 464 + 8 KB unwired RAM, released in Spain to circumvent a tax charging 64 KB computers.*With a total of '''768×288''' pixels, the [[CPC|CPC]] was the 8-bit with the highest displayable resolution on a CRT screen.*'''OpenOffice''' is the descendant of [[Star-Division|StarWriter]] for CPC. *'''Excel''' is the direct descendant of [[Multiplan]] for CP/M. *[[SymbOS|SymbOS]] supports '''50x''' bigger hard drives than Win95A. *[[FutureOS|FutureOS]] can load a 178 KB floppy disc in '''9 seconds'''.*[[FutureOS|FutureOS]] can manage up to '''4 MB''' of extended RAM and '''32 GB''' of mass storage.
* CPCWiki is '''growing and growing'''. Only three weeks have been passed, and we already reached the 777 article (nice number) right now! I am also glad to welcome some old grandeurs here like Longshot and Overflow. More people qualified themself for the [[List_of_most_active_contributors|"most active users"]] top list. I just would like to ask everyone you to take care about extending stub articles to improve the quality of this Wiki. -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 23:08, 24 September 2006 (CEST)* With the '''500. Article''' we reached a new record mark today! Thanx a lot to all contributors who made CPCWiki possible! There is still a lot to do, and our next goal should be to become the most comprehensive database for an 8bit computer system ever. -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 19:53, 3 September 2006 (CEST)* Several modifications have been done during the last few days. CPCWiki has a '''new main page''' now, while the [[CPCWiki:Portal|CPCWiki Portal]] replaced its link list. Also the talk pages [[Discussion]], [[Suggestions]] and [[Talk:Main_Page|Main Page talk]] have been reorganised a little bit. [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 20:15, 2 September 2006 (CEST)* Add the CPCWiki to '''your Homepage'''. Check out [[About#Wiki-Napping]] and start napping this Wiki.* A couple '''more skins''' added. You can check these out from your preferences page. Please note that these are not fully supported yet - that is, I just dropped the files there, and not all things are working 100% yet.
