  Any suggestions on a homepage?
 
Hi everyone! I've been thinking about setting up a homepage. It's about time, computers are taking over the world :-) and my (humble) lego creations are waiting to be seen in public.

  Re: EP1 DVD and VHS release news
 
Basicly it is simple. To make a dvd there is a lot of work to be done, especially to add the extra bits that dvd disks have got to have. Would you rarther he make a dvd of ep1 or work on ep2? -- Jonathan Wilson wilsonj@xoommail.com (URL) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)
