NAME:
David Bain

COMPUNET ID:
EMB1 (KKYTV editor)

WHAT HE DID:
Ran KKY TV, compunet's first (and last) television station. Actually, that was really just a cheap ploy to get people to come to the site. I like to think that KKY was the "yahoo" of its day - we ran over 500 demos reviews, site reviews, net interviews and comedy; in fact, if the internet had only happended ten years earlier then I'd be an e-millionaire. But I'm not bitter (retires to darkened room to make plans for world domination)

CLAIM TO COMPUNET FAME:
Wrote an article about Compunet for distinguished national computer magazine "Commodore Disk User" (if you haven't heard of it then don't be surprised - it folded after two issues). Was sent free disks of demos by JASON for review. Had a few charges waived. (nuff said)

WHAT'S HE UP TO NOW:
Writing software for banks while failing to become a rock-star and trying to become a comedian.

OTHER STUFF:
Who was METNET?

TOP THREE FAVOURITE PROGRAMS/HARDWARE:
Paradroid - the game had such an incredible atmosphere
Witchswitch - really easy, but beautiful graphics & sound (for the time)
HitchHikers - frustratingly impossible, even with the solution. [I managed it!]

BETWEEN WHICH DATES WERE YOU A MEMBER OF COMPUNET:
Think it was 86 to 88, or something.
