Beam Software Site on Sumea

This is from a forum post I made recently which I thought was worth a mention on the front page. A long time ago, Beam Software had a website. Unfotunately, it closed down seven years ago shortly after Infogrames purchased the studio, and gone was that wealth of information on Australia's longest running studio. What's worse is that The Way Back Machine (a website that archives other websites from long ago) didn't store this site at all, and there's no trace of it anywhere else.

The good news is that Sumea has some of the important pages of the old Beam website stored for posterity! Yes, by some miracle, I had saved some pages onto my HD and managed to transfer it across whenever I had a new hard disk or format. So what are you waiting for? Check out the links below for a rare flashback on Beam, which include a bit of history, a look at the people that worked there, and press releases on Beam's sale to Infogrames...

And if anyone is curious, yes I have the Ratbag website stored as well. o_O
