  1. Hey Nick,

    You probably don’t remember me but I used to work under Phil Cannon – RIP – as a his store junior.
    Was updating my CV and came across your web site while trying to find an old Random Access logo. Couldn’t help but send a hello for old times sake. Can’t believe how young you look in the photo’s, feels like yesterday.

    All the best.

  2. Hey,

    Nice photos, whatever happenned to Random? It was a pretty cool place (like Logical Solutions was in Pyrmont NSW) to visit in Hindmarsh Square Adelaide as well as the Jasmin Restaurant or have lunch just outside.

    Cheers,

      6 months after I left in 1995 it went into voluntary administration. The owner attempted to sell/merge the operations after key staff left to start up ComputerLand Adelaide .. but it did not gel. This was one of the main reasons why I left. That, and a dream job at Apple.

      A bit sad really.
