EDIT
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
EUG16
Well, another intereresting disk thanks to the members who sent things
in.
I have a few more items which will have to wait for EUG17. Some of these
are quite interesting thenselves.
The title screen was sent by a member. I'm sorry I have mislaid his
name. The same goes for whoever designed last month's screen and two
more screens. I know that each of these are from diferent people so I
have four appologies to make. It isn't easy running EUG and things do
get mixed up and lost no matter how organised you try to be and I'm
pretty organised usually.
Since EUG17 will be comming out during December how does everyone feel
about making this an issue for selling/swapping/giving away all those
items which we all have and hold onto incase'?
With Christmas comming up you might raise some extra cash and other
members could get those things which they really want.
It might be helpful at this point to make a few ground rules which
everyone will know about and can avoid confusion.
Any price quoted will exclude postage unless otherwise stated.
Items offered need not necessarily be about Acorn computers, indeed they
need not really be about computers.
I will promise not to bid for any items untill everyone has received
their disk.
There could also be a section for people looking for items. EUG has a lot
of members, and that ROM, book, piece of hardware which one might be
desperate for could just be lurking in the back of some dark cupboard of
another member.
Again, try to specify what you might offer in return ie money or a swap.
Items need not really be about computers.
And of course I will promise not to off load the contents of my 'might
come in useful one day' cupboard untill everyone has their disks.
SEND IT IN
Looking ahead to EUG20.
A review of equipment would be a good idea. I often get asked what are
the best items for a particular purpose. If members could write about
their kit.
What sort of printer do you use? Is it any good? How long have you had
it? What sort of problems/dissapointments have you had with it? Would
you recommend it to anyone else?
Other equipment can be reviewed in the same way, disk drives, monitors,
tape players, addons, utility programs, word processors, ROMs.
If we get a lot of people writing about the same product we can get a
good idea of how good/bad it is and make up our minds if we fancy
buying it. Every member can easily get involved in this, we have plenty
of time, EUG20 is due in August '95 and we all have some kit.
While were at it we could also compile a list of suppliers of products,
cheap disks/drives/monitors/printers/accessories. Anything that might be
useful to members looking for that bit of hardware.
Software as well. Send in any sources you know about of software.
So, let's get thinking, let's get writing. SEND IT IN.
I understand that PRESS and JAFFA are both still going strong. They have
each promised to send advertisments but neither has come up with anything
so far. Stiil it's nice to know they're there.
An article in the features section is illustrated with some drawings. I
have included the printer dump from Diagram. In Diagram section are some
details about it. If anyone has problems, SEND IT IN.
I really would like to know who has double sided disk drives especially
the DFS users. With so many files in EUG it is becomming expensive and
very time consuming to produce so many disks. Now this is not a case of
getting an extra disk for you money, it's a case of if I cannot reduce
the number of disks needed for each issue EUG will run into problems. So
if you have a double sided drive, tell me. It doesn't need to be a long
letter. A post card with your name and address and say:
5.25 double
Now that's not going to take long.
Problem with 3.5" disks.
Some members have reported that their 3.5" disks have got stuck in their
drives. I have asked around and discovered that this is a surprisingly
common problem caused by the flap on some drives catching on the metal
shutter of the disk. Unfortunatly once it happens once the shutter gets
bent and it tends to happen more often with that disk. If it does happen
to you don't pull the disk. Find a short piece of card, say about 1/2"
wide by 3" long. Insert this into the drive about 1" on top of the disk
so as to hold the drive flap up and gently pull the disk out. This
problem is results from rough handling. Disks are delecate. Don't shove
them in or tug them out agressively, treat them gently.
Keep the submissions rolling in. We can all see the benefit now and it
really is working, you send something in and someone else sends
something in as a result.
