I was most offended to read your rude and unfunny description of Spectrum owners in my nephew's copy of EUG #0. We are not all "young lads of about ten or eleven" nor do we all roller skate around shopping areas wearing moronic expressions as you implied. I for one am in my mid-forties and have used my Spectrum for serious purposes for over six years. Your descriptions of other computer owners were no better. May I suggest that you think before you print and above all that you grow up?

Sorry, Lawrence. The remarks abut other computer users were meant to be light-hearted characatures drawn from casual observations. I'm sure most people regarded it as a harmless piece of waffle. All the same, I apologise for any unintended offence they may have caused.
