L/Boust2

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.

One last point - I noted just prior to Christmas a large 
number of advertsin the local press and in other minor 
publications indicating a brisktrade in ELECTRONs  and tape 
machines. If you have a Printer and a PrinterController but 
lack a disc drive you can do a good job with TAPE and inthe 
case of short items will find it almost as fast as disc. You 
shouldnot have problems playing back your own recordings! I 
presume Gus that youare still providing printed copies of EUG 
to those members who do not havea disc drive.

Yours aye, 
Tom Boustead
           
THANKS FOR THE INFO TOM. 

I MUST EMPHASISE TO EVERYONE THE IMPORTANCE OF CHECKING ALL 
DISKS INCLUDING EUG DISCS BEFORE PUTTING THEM INTO YOUR DRIVE. 
ALSO IF YOUR DISK IS DAMAGED THEN PLEASE DO RETURN IT AND I 
WILL SEND YOU A REPLACEMENT. 

AS YOU SAY ELECTRONS DO STILL HAVE A MARKET AND SOMETIMES 
PRICES ARE A BIT RIDICULOUS SO SHOP AROUND. 

EUG IS NOT PRODUCED ON PAPER PARTLY BECAUSE OF COST BUT ALSO 
BECAUSE MUCH OF THE CONTENT IS RATHER UNSUITABLE FOR PRINT 
BEING LONG PROGRAMS AND SUCH. FOR THOSE WITHOUT A DISC DRIVE 
EUG IS AVAILABLE ON TAPE ALTHOUGH SOME PATIENCE AND 
PERSEVERANCE WILL BE NEEDED.
