TRY THE KEYBOARD AND THE JOYSTICK AS WELL, BUT DON'T PRESS THE CONTROL KEY, AS THIS EXITS THIS DEMO!           q4p2WATCH THE VERTICAL SCROLL ABOVE FOR GREETINGS AND OUR PHONE NUMBER OR ADDRESS.             p3q6CONTACT RALPH 124C41+ IN THE ALPHA COMPLEX. CALL $ 08-770 16 65 [ (300 OR 1200 BAUD).             q8p7WE HAVE A NEW MEMBER! SCORPION HAS JOINED POWERDRIVE, AND HE'S AN ARTIST, SO IN OUR NEXT DEMO WE HOPE TO SHOW YOU SOME GREAT COMPUTER ART!!!            p8q1THIS ISq4DOWNq1ON THE KEYBOARD. YOU KNOW ME, I'M THE PROGRAMMER!             p4q5THIS SPACISH DEMO IS MY BEST PIECE OF PROGRAMMING YET, AND IT'S ALMOST AS GOOD AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE! HAVE YOU NOTICED THE PICTURE BELOW THIS SCROLLOW? IT WAS DRAWN BY ME. I HOPE OUR NEW MEMBER SCORPION CAN DRAW PICTURES WHICH LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING. THIS ONE IS JUST A NOVA-BLOB. AS YOU MAY THINK NOW, I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY OF SCORPION'S ART.   q1I'M JUST SITTING HERE WRITING TEXT. THE DATE IS THE 3RD OF FEBRUARY 1989 AND THE TIME IS ABOUT SEVEN O'CLOCK. THE ONLY THING THAT'S NOT FINISHED IN THIS DEMO NOW IS THE MUSIC (I HAVEN'T GOT ANY MUSIC, AND IF I DON'T GET ANY GOOD MUSIC, I WILL HAVE TO USE AN OLD KARSTEN OBARSKI (I THINK) TUNE CALLED BLUESONG (NO, I GOT THIS ONE LATER)) AND ANOTHER THING THAT'S NOT FINISHED YET IS THIS BORING TEXT.         q4p3AS USUAL, I WILL TELL YOU ABOUT THE WEATHER. IT'S STILL NO SNOW OUTSIDE, BECAUSE IT'S TOOq6HOTq4FOR THAT.          p2q4IT'S FILM-TIME AGAIN! I KNOW I HAVE ALREADY TOLD YOU A LOT ABOUT SOME MOVIES I HAVE SEEN, BUT NOW I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT I'VE SEEN A MOVIE CALLED "YOUNG GUNS", AND IT'S GREAT! IT'S ALMOST AS GOOD AS "DIE HARD". I KNOW YOU PROBABLY DON'T LIKE WESTERN MOVIES (I DON'T), BUT YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS ONE!    FROM WHAT I WRITE YOU MIGHT THINK THAT I ONLY SEE GOOD FILMS. OF COURSE I DON'T! ONE OF THE WORST (BORING) TURKEY MOVIES I HAVE SEEN (ON VIDEO) IS "THE FIX". AVOID THIS ONE AT ALL COSTS, IF YOU DON'T SUFFER FROM INSOMNIA! IF YOU WANT TO SEE A VERY FUNNY FILM, TRY TO GET "RAWHEAD" (MONSTER, BASED ON A NOVEL (VERY STRANGE))  "KILL SQUAD" (A KARATE GANG FROM THE VIETNAM WAR FIGHTING PEOPLE TO GET INFORMATION. EVERYONE IN THE GANG GETS KILLED EXCEPT ONE WHO HAD A BULLETPROOF VEST (ALTHOUGH YOU SAW THE BLOOD WHEN HE GOT SHOT). THE WORST SCRIPT IN ANY FILM EVER!)  "NINJA DESTROYER" (I LIKE THIS ONE! THE FILM IS AS FUNNY AS THE TITLE AND OF COURSE THERE ARE LOTS OF BAD EFFECTS)  "THE CURSE OF THE BLACK WIDOW" (NOT THAT BAD, BUT FUNNY HORROR MOVIE)  "TIMEWALKER" (A MUMMY WALKING AROUND KILLING PEOPLE. GREAT FUN!)  "AMERICA 3000" (MAD MAX TYPE. I DON'T REMEMBER MUCH OF THIS ONE, ONLY A MONKEYMAN CALLED AAARGH THE AWFUL. VERY NICE.)    THAT WAS ALL FROM ME I THINK, AND NOW SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT...               q6p6HELLO, ALL FREAKS OUT THERE! THIS IS RALPH 124C41+ AND I'M SITTING HERE TYPING THIS JUST FOR YOU AND IT'S A REAL PAIN IN THE LOWER BACK PART OF MY BODY (THIS FUCKING HARD CHAIR IS KILLING ME). WELL I'M QUITE LOW ON IDEAS ABOUT WHAT TO WRITE SO I'LL TELL YOU ABOUT THE ALPHA COMPLEX WHICH IS A BBS SYSTEM THAT I USUALLY LOG INTO QUITE FREQUENTLY. IT'S REALLY GOOD AND THE SYSOP IS A REALLY NICE CHAP. THERE'S SOME AMIGA STUFF THERE TO DOWNLOAD (I SUSPECT THAT THIS DEMO WILL FIND IT'S WAY THERE) AND I THINK THERE WILL BE QUITE A LOT OF AMIGA PROGRAMS THERE AFTER A WHILE. I CAN HONESTLY RECOMMEND IT TO ALL OF YOU PHREAKERS. THE PHONE NUMBER WAS  MENTIONED EARLIER IN THIS DEMO SO IF YOU MISSED IT, TOO BAD FOR YOU!           q8p1I THINK I'D BETTER GET ON WITH THE MESSAGES BEFORE I BEGIN WITH THE STORY AS IT'S SO BORING MOST OF YOU WILL FALL ASLEEP BEFORE IT'S FINISHED. OK, HERE GOES:        SCORPION - WELCOME TO THE GROUP     AUTOMAN - THANKS FOR THE TAPE WITH YOUR MUSIC. SOME TUNES ARE GREAT AND SOME STINKS, BUT MOST OF THEM ARE GOOD.     MIDWAY - NICE PHONE CALLS (THE BILL IS GOING TO BREAK MY ECONOMY)      ORCUS - I REALLY DIG THE COMPLEX     AND TO THE ONES I FORGOT AND HAVEN'T MET YET - BE COOL, IF YOU CAN'T BE COOL BE COLD.        p4q4ANYROAD I THINK IT'S TIME FOR A STORY (I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING BETTER TO WRITE). IT WAS LIKE THIS. ABOUT HALF A YEAR AGO I STUDIED TO BE AN ENGINEER (WELL, I STILL DO BUT NEVER MIND) AT DANDERYDS GYMNASIUM AND IN THAT SCHOOL IT'S A TRADITION THAT ALL TECHNOLOGY STUDENTS LEAVING THE SCHOOL SHOULD BUILD A MONUMENT OVER THEMSELVES. THIS IS OF COURSE ILLEGAL BUT AS LONG AS YOU GET THE HEADMASTERS APPROVAL IT'S OK (I DON'T THINK HE CAN SAY NO WHEN THE MONUMENT IS IN PLACE). WHEN IT WAS OUR TURN WE DECIDED TO PUT UP A VOLKSWAGEN FILLED WITH CONCRETE AND PAINT IT PINK (TASTEFUL, EH?). WE FOUND A SUITABLE ONE DUMPED IN THE WOODS AND TOWED IT HOME TO ONE OF US WHO WAS GOING TO REPLACE THE WINDOWS IN THE CAR WITH STEEL PLATES AND WELD THE DOORS SHUT. ON THE WEEKEND JUST BEFORE THE SUMMER HOLIDAY THE CAR WAS WELDED SHUT AND READY TO BE TOWED TO IT'S PLACE IN FRONT OF THE SCHOOL. THERE WERE TWO PROBLEMS... FIRST, THE GEARS WERE NOT VERY GOOD SO YOU HAD TO HOLD DOWN THE CLUTCH ALL THE TIME. THE SECOND PROBLEM WAS THAT YOU COULDN'T SEE THROUGH THE WINDSCREEN (IT WAS OF STEEL, REMEMBER) SO THE DRIVER HAD TO STICK HIS HEAD UP THROUGH A HOLE IN THE ROOF, BUT IF HE DID SO HE COULDN'T REACH THE CLUTCH AND THE BRAKES. THIS PROBLEM WAS SOLVED BY PUTTING AN EXTRA PERSON IN THE CAR (BY THE WAY, IT WAS HERADOTOS) TO CONTROL THE BRAKES AND HOLD DOWN THE CLUTCH. THIS WORKED QUITE WELL, THE DRIVER SHOUTED ORDERS TO HERADOTOS WHO COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING, BUT AFTER A WHILE THE TOW-CABLE GOT ENTANGLED IN THE WHEEL OF THE VOLKSWAGEN AND THE CAR JUMPED UP ON THE SIDEWALK HEADING STRAIGHT FOR A CLIFF WALL. THE DRIVER TURNED TO AVOID THE CLIFF BUT AS THIS WAS IN A DOWNHILL THE VOLKSWAGEN ACCELERATED AND WAS ABOUT TO DIVE PAST THE TOW CAR. TO INCREASE THE DRAMA THE VOLKSWAGEN TURNED AND HEADED FOR THE TOW CAR (A BRAND NEW TOYOTA COROLLA). LUCKILY ENOUGH HERADOTOS PUSHED THE BRAKES AND A COLLISION WAS AVOIDED. WE SORTED OUT THE MESS WITH THE TOW CABLE AND CONTINUED TOWARDS THE COLLEGE. ON ARRIVAL WE DUG FOUR HOLES FOR THE WHEELS AND PUSHED THE CAR INTO THEM SO THAT IT CAME TO STAND ON THE CHASSIS. THEN THE HARD WORK BEGUN TO FILL IT WITH ROCKS, SAND AND STONES. AT APPROXIMATELY ONE O'CLOCK WHEN THE CAR WAS HALF FILLED THERE CAME A CAR DRIVING STRAIGHT AT US WITH FULL LIGHTS. IT SHOWED TO BE THE POLICE THAT WONDERED WHAT THE HECK WE WERE DOING FILLING A CAR WITH ROCKS IN THE SCHOOLYARD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. "WE'RE BUILDING A MONUMENT." WE SAID. THEY LOOKED CONFUSED AND SAID THAT THEY COULD DO NOTHING AS IT WAS THE SCHOOL'S TERRITORY AND THEN DROVE OFF. FINALLY THE CAR WAS FILLED AND WE PLUGGED THE HOLE WITH SOME CONCRETE THEN WE WENT HOME TO GET SOME SLEEP. THE NEXT DAY IT WAS TIME TO PAINT IT PINK BUT IT WAS RAINING SO WE DECIDED TO DO IT LATER. WHILE WE WAITED FOR THE TIME TO GET LATER OUR FRIENDS IN THE POLICE CAR RETURNED TO SEE HOW THE VOLKSWAGEN LOOKED WHEN PAINTED, THEY WERE A BIT DISAPPOINTED TO SEE THAT IT WASN'T FINISHED BUT THAT'S LIFE! q1>TIME PASSES<q4 AT LAST IT WAS FINISHED, PAINTED AND READY (AT APPROX ONE O'CLOCK) AND WE WENT HOME TO CATCH SOME SLEEP BEFORE IT WAS TIME TO GO TO SCHOOL FOR THE LAST TIME. WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE SCENE THERE WERE ALREADY SOME PEOPLE ADMIRING THE NEW MONUMENT. WHEN WE STOOD THERE, THERE WAS A PERSON ON A SCOOTER DRIVING THROUGH THE CROWD, STOPPED DEAD AND RUSHED UP TO THE TOP OF THE CAR AND STOOD THERE JUMPING, SHOUTING "THIS IS MY CAR! THIS IS MY CAR!".          q8p3THIS IS RALPH 124C41+ FOR POWERDRIVE IN SWEDEN.           q4p1THIS IS DOWN AGAIN. THE TEXT ABOVE THE PLANET IS TAKEN FROM: ALIENS, SOME PD PROGRAM WE CAN'T REMEMBER, SPACEBALLS AND L5 SOCIETY.            p7q1NOW A QUESTION TO TRIANGLE. YOU ARE REALLY A FAST SPREADER! HOW COULD THE RELEASE DATE OF YOUR GIGADEMO II BE THE FOURTH OF FEBRUARY 1989 WHEN I SAW IT ON THE 21ST OF JANUARY?????            q7p2HIYA! THIS IS RALPH 124C41+ AGAIN WITH SOME ADDITIONAL INFO AND MESSAGES. FIRST OF ALL I WANT TO THANK MIDWAY FOR HELPING US TO GET INVITED TO THE COPY-PARTY HELD BY THE GANG, AMIGA LORDS AND ZYX IN KARLSTAD. IF WE DON'T RECIVE THE TEXT WRITTEN BY SCORPION WITHIN ONE AND A HALF WEEK WE'LL RELEASE THIS DEMO AT THE PARTY. WE HAVE ANOTHER DEMO GOING ON ABOUT THE SAME TIME AS I WRITE THIS. DOWN WANTS IT TO BE A PART OF THIS DEMO BUT I THINK THAT IT'S GOOD ENOUGH TO STAND ON IT'S OWN. IF DOWN GET HIS IDEA THROUGH (WHICH IS LIKELY AS HE IS THE PROGRAMMER OF THEM) I THINK THEY WILL BE RELEASED AT THE COPY-PARTY'S DEMO COMPETITION.     THIS IS DOWN AGAIN. I'M RIGHT NOW AT THE PARTY IN KARLSTAD. I'M SITTING HERE AND HAVE NOTHING TO WRITE ABOUT. WE ARRIVED ONE OR TWO HOURS AGO BY TRAIN FROM STOCKHOLM. THAT WAS ALL FROM DOWN! RALPH 124C41+ IS HERE TO ADD THE VERY LAST BYTES OF TEXT. AS YOU HAVE UNDERSTAND WE ARE AT THE COPY-PARTY. THE TRIP FROM STOCKHOLM WAS QUITE BORING BUT IT HELPED TO CHAT AWAY WITH SOME AMIGA LORDS MEMBERS. HERADOTOS IS SITTING BESIDE ME COPYING "HEROES OF THE LANCE". IN FRONT OF ME IS A MEMBER OF ATOMIC/UNITRAX SITTING PLAYING MUSIC ON CD AND TO MY LEFT IS RAM-BOO OF ANTI-ST AND SOME OTHERS PLAYING AN UNIDENTIFIED GAME. THE STUFF FROM SCORPION HAVEN'T ARRIVED IN TIME SO DOWN IS GOING TO DRAW THE LOGO WHICH YOU SAW IN THE BEGINNING OF THIS DEMO.            p8q4THIS IS THE DRAGON OF WINTER NIGHT AGAIN. IF YOU HAVEN'T DISCOVERED ALL THE FEATURES OF THIS DEMO, HERE IS THE LIST:   JOYSTICK * UP/DOWN - MOVE THIS TEXT A LITTLE UP OR DOWN   *   RIGHT - CHANGE COLOUR OF MOON AND PLANET   *   LEFT - TURN POWER LED AND LOW-PASS FILTER ON OR OFF   *   BUTTON - BROKEN MONITOR      KEYBOARD * LEFT SHIFT KEY - CHANGE COLOUR OF THE VERTICAL SCROLL CYLINDER   *   LEFT AMIGA (OR COMMODORE) - LOWER MUSIC SPEED   *   RIGHT AMIGA - HIGHER MUSIC SPEED   *   LEFT ALT - RESTART MUSIC   *   RIGHT SHIFT - CHANGE STARS COLOUR           p1q3I'LL TELL YOU NO MORE NOW, BECAUSE THIS IS THE END  &
