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
Can anyone give me an address where I can get 3.5" MD discs? While on the subject of discs, I think I have figures out why the labels sometimes don't stick too well. It is the discs. I noticed that another batch of labels which I have used successfully on HD discs for a while now sometimes peel on the discs which I have been using for EUG. I would seem the doom merchants have tired of continual warnings about the millenium bug, as someone said to me recently, the sort of people whom the doom merchants want to impress probably don't even understand what the millenium bug is. So now they have found another drum to beat. Genetically Modified Food, or GM Food which sounds a little more sinister with shades of big corporations. The word is that genically modified food is going to cause a breed of super bugs to develop which will eat us all. And while we're at it triffids will stalk the countryside molesting children. And someone will breed a new Hitler using Dolly the sheep and Marylin Munroe. But there really is no need to worry, Our brave boys, led by that lovely Bobby Moore will get in their spitfires and show those nasty germans a thing or two. And meanwhile the rest of us can join hands around the burning ruins of our homes and sing the latest hit from Vera Lynn. So, maybe things won't be so bad after all. Pass the Linda McCartney Nut Cutlets someone. I really need more submissions for the next EUG. I am currently down to zero. So if you don't want an EUG filled with my drivel and a few recycled games which take an hour to respond to a key press then send something in Now. Gus March 1999 01705 781168
