 Roamer Lists
We use the word research loosely. You can classify some of the materials here as “hardcore” professional research, others represents accounts of people’s experiences and opinions.
We’ve also included a wealth of information about Logo and Classic Roamer. This is still relevant. In a conventional library much of this would be gathering dust in some corner waiting for a new generation to find its hidden gems. The material is still excellent and still relevant to some aspects of Roamer.
