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.

This EUG is quite late and the reason is that I have been holding back in
the hope that some members would send some more contributions. I have been
promised some games from Ross Little but he is having a problem with his
drive and so they were a little late. I been have sent some interesting
letters but very little else. Richard and I have managed to put some
things together but this is EUG23. 

Sorry if I sound a bit like a headmaster, I've just been watching the film
Clockwise on TV and had a chuckle where John Cleese addresses the
distinguished gentlemen of the Headmasters conferance.

Previously I have put everything I've been sent into the next EUG. This
was why EUG21 was so large. Richard and for that matter my wife have
suggested that perhaps I should hold some submissions over perhaps when an
EUG has reached a certain size. 

I did this because I wanted each EUG to reflect what members were doing at
a particular time. OK so this might seem a little vague and I have with
held a couple of things because I thought they simply weren't very good,
and beleve me they weren't. 

Ross little who has sent so much good stuff in the past won't be able to
continue for the time being so it's over to everyone else. As I've said in
the past if you send something then others will as well. It really does
work. But without your submissions, however small there will be no EUG.

What ever I do I can only put into EUG what is sent. 
So SENT IT IN

There is a new science fiction series on TV, it is on SKY 1 so many
members won't have seen it. It's called Earth 2. It comes from America.
Now so much that comes from America does seem so wooden. The Next
Generation Star Treck is a good example, great filming, production,
effects and perhaps plot but let down by some medocure one-dimentional
acting and terrible scripts. In fact this is a recurring problem with
American film and TV. They seem to spoil good plots with poor scripts.

Earth 2 is different. There are some examples of American wishful thinking
but for the most part there is great acting, interesting characters who
have different sides to their personalities, a good plot and excellent
scripts. My wife who needs a lot to catch her interest really enjoys it.
If you haven't seen it yet I would advise you not to until it is repeated
on BBC2, probably. Missing one episode will make it extreamly difficult to
understand what is happening.

A recent decision by a court official in Germany about some material on
the Internet has resulted in the Internet company, Compuserve removing a
section from the worldwide network. It seems that Compuserve is unable to
prevent access of part of the Internet for just one country and if it had
not taken this action then it was threatened with having the Internet
totally shut out of Germany.

This is a disgraceful situation. Compuserve should have stood their ground
but instead have relented to government pressure and censored free access
to information albeit rather offensive information. It has also raised the
spector of developing software to prevent access to just one region.
Already Singapore is apparently in conflict with Internet because it
contains material about such offensive topics as free speech, Iran has
closed down the Internet there because it contains 'Western Cultural
Values'. 

Governments have for centuries tried to keep the people whom they govern
apart from their neighbours by manipulating language, instituting
superstitution and calling it religeon, spreading fear and lies and
national arrogance. The Internet has opened the possability of breaking
down these barriers once and for all. Allowing people to speak to each
other and discover that their neighbours are in fact just like them with
the same hopes and fears, needs and wishes, loves and hates. We differ
only in where we live, the language we speak and perhaps the colour of our
skin. In every other way, the mother in Bosnia, the father in Rowanda, the
grand father in Tibet, the grand mother in  South America, the uncle in
North America and the aunt in France is the same as the rest of us. The
Internet has turned on the light to allow us to see this. Now the Internet
itself has agreed to dim that light. 

The strength of the Internet is two fold, it is a virtually uncensored
medium for communication backed by a commercial value which will
eventually make it impossable for any government to shut it out. The
inability to prevent access to some sections of the Internet in certain
regions was reported almost as a flaw. It is not a flaw but a strength,
take all of it or none. Ponography is generally accepted as being
offensive to many people but it is a reality because some people want to
see it. I have been in countries where ponography of any kind is banned
but the demand and the ponography are still there. The only way to censor
ponography on the Internet is to censor the Internet itself.

In the past people have been told 'Don't mix with your neighbours because
they are in league with the devil and will steel your soul' or 'Don't mix
with your neighbours because they eat babies' or 'Your neighbours are
sub-human' or 'Your neighbours are brainwashed and will brainwash you'.
Now the light of technology is being dimmed by the panic of sexual
deviancy. 

The sad thing is there is really nothing that we can do about it. Those of
us who are capable of thinking will be silenced by the threat of social
castigation and ridicule.

So why has Compuserve caved in? Truth when it comes to governments is
fragile at best but an assumption might be that business which made the
Internet so successful has decided that opportunity is being lost and that
free speech where it doesn't relate to business is not their concern.

This is indeed a sad day for the common people of the world and the narrow
minded sovereigns of our lives can sleep securly knowing that their
spheres of local influence are once again safe from the threat of
revelation or the truth.

Well another year is over, I'm no longer nearer 40 than I would like and
EUG is still going strong.

I will limit the sizes of future EUG and hold over surplus submissions if
you will remember to send something in.
