MONEY IS THE INSPIRATION Software manufacturer J P Gibbons seems to have money on the mind with two new 16K Spectrum cassettes just reaching the market. One, Casino 1, is concerned with gambling away money and the other, Personal Banking System, is concerned with saving it. Casino 1 includes three old favourites, Blackjack, Craps and Roulette. Blackjack and Craps are fairly routine card games where you stake money against the computer pot and, more often than not, lose all of it. The computer seems to hit a winning streak too easily for our liking - perhaps it has a system? The roulette game is very interesting and we managed to win money from the computer. When the bets have been laid on the roulette board the wheel is spun and a series of numbers flashes on to the screen. If it stops on your spot you win the pot, if it does not you lose your stake. Personal Banking System allows a user to keep an accurate record of financial affairs. It will keep track of standing orders and even locate a specific cheque through its number. The system is user-friendly and supports separate data files. Casino 1 costs £4.95; Personal Banking System costs £9.95, including instruction manual. Both cassettes are available from J P Gibbons AIB, [redacted].
