Subject: Support the Case Porting Project

Nifty Software, well known producers of many many many unfinished
software packages, are pleased to anounce their expansion into the
hardware market with the formation of the

Case Porting Project

Its aim being to port popular 'cool' cases from the PC world into
the cosy RISC OS world

A preliminary range has been drawn up, going under the title of

Cool Retro-fit All Purpose Cases

Available for all of the leading RISC OS computers you can
currently buy :-

Iyonix Classic
Case #1. Polar White

Case #2. Transparent
http://www.nifty.demon.co.uk/cases/case2.jpg

Iyonix X100
Case #3. Ultra Low Profile
http://www.nifty.demon.co.uk/cases/case3.jpg

Iyonix Panther
Case #4. Kitty-Kat Super Deluxe Play Centre
http://www.nifty.demon.co.uk/cases/case4.jpg

Omega
Case #5. Environmentally friendly, bio-degradable, character
enclosure with user installable easy access reset button hole
http://www.nifty.demon.co.uk/cases/case5.jpg

(Please note, we may not bring this case to market since we don't
actually believe anyone really owns an Omega, which is a pitty
because it's the most customisable 'housing' available)

IMPORTANT

The above cases are intended as a 'proof of concept', a well proven
concept in the RISC OS market.

PLEDGE YOUR SUPPORT

With any project of this magnitude it is important to gauge demand
and backing. That's where you, the humble RISC OS user and hopefully
potential backer, come in.

Don't be put off by the many many many unfinished software packages,
I'm sure I can pull this one off, seems easy enough by my reconing,
I can produce better pictures if you give me a little more time, you
don't know how long it took to air brush out those cats! But I digress.

I appriciate that many of you may not have spare money just sitting
around like me, but I could do with some more, so I'm opening up the
options by allowing any form of funding; food, cars, air-miles, power
of atourney, use your imagination!

Thank you for your time, and hopefully money, err, I mean backing.

Roger Wylde - Project Manager.

Please post in this thread to show your support, please choose the
case number and payment method.
