PD/ArmSi/Examples/?ReadMe

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.

File contents
These example !ArmSI files were compiled by a number of helpful beta-testers -
thank you all! Please send me any interesting figures you get. Nick.

Don't read *too* much into the figures below - I haven't specified whether
there was any video DMA, or the ROM speed, etc. Look at the files themselves.
