Econet
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Dominic Ford, 36 Tattenham Way, Tadworth, Surrey, KT20 5NJ. email: dominic@reigram.demon.co.uk I have recently gained access to the Reigate Grammar School computer storage cupboards, and was surprised by the amount of old Acorn technology there is there. I have found numerous books about BBC hardware, as well as a large amount of Econet hardware. The school is keen to sell this, and so please write to me if you want any Econet equipment. There are over a dozen BBC Econet module cards, which are on sale for #5 each. I may also be able to supply other leads and hardware items: please write if you have anything specific which you want, and I will try to find one for you and give you the price. If you want any information about Econets, please write to me either directly or through EUG, and I will try to answer your quiries from the books. Incidently, are there any readers out there who have managed to hook up their Electrons to an Econet? I can only find information about linking BBCs, and not Electrons. If you have managed it, please write into EUG and tell me how.
