I visited Jeff Minter at home in his family's bungalow in Tadley, a village
half-way between Reading and Basingstoke. As soon as you arrive, you
know Jeff lives there. On the wall is a large painted Llama. Inside
they're everywhere. The room Jeff works in is a specially built
extension packed with computer equipment: C64, Vic, C16 (he'd just
bought one), Apple, Atari, MSX, BBC, QL plus his stereo compact disc
and the video machines, including The Tempest and Atari's Star Wars.
But the most striking feature of the room is the mural all along one
wall. And the subject matter? Llamas, of course. And then the Llamas on
top of the monitors - fluffy ones, plastic ones, metal ones. Not to
mention the camels and the alpacas.
