Sam DemoBase
Welcome to the Sam DemoBase - a project to catalogue and screenshot every Sam demo in existance! Demos are the programs people write to show off their talents and the computer's capabilities; they're usually PD, and so they've been a staple part of Sam's software base ever since the machine was first produced.
Note that this list contains only Sam Machine Code demos - not programs written in BASIC or C, not demos converted from the Spectrum, and not games (although some demo-like menus have slipped in too). That's not to say that there is anything wrong with the other programs, just that it's some other list's job to catalogue them.
If you know of any demos that I've missed, please email me the details...
