My_World/Info

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 are screens to go in the My World or My World 2 packages.

I do not claim that the art work in the first two files is mine- it is all available from public domain libraries. What I have done is give an indication of what can be achieved using the package in the classroom.
