Still looking for new homes for the cost of postage:
The Crystal Maze game (for Archimedes, A3010, A3020, A4000 and A5000).
Boxed with manual.
Haunted House game by Gordon Key (for 'all Acorn 32-bit computers -
circa 1993). Boxed with manual.
Saloon Cars game by Andy Swain (for BBC A3000 & Archimedes 310 & 400
series). Boxed with manual.
Wonderland adventure game from Magnetic Scrolls (for Archimedes).
Boxed with manual, map, quick reference guide, etc. Works on a
StrongARM Risc PC with RISC OS 6 after a couple of simple tweaks.
Cyber Chess by William Tunstall-Pedoe (for A3000, A3000 and ALL
Archimedes Computers). Boxed with owner's manual and chess tutorial.
The Missing Dinosaur Bone adventure program by Angelsoft educational
(for 'Acorn Series Computers'). Boxed with manual, curriculum activity
sheets, etc.
Acorn Advance program discs 1 & 2, data disc A. Part numbers 0284,076
074 and 068. No box or manual.
Longman Logotron Advantage by Doug Harrison. Spreadsheet program.
Works on StrongARM Risc PC with RISC OS 6. Comes with manual but no
box.
Longman Logotron Revelation Image Pro. Graphics program. Includes
imagePro 24 supplement for Risc PC. Boxed with manuals. Older program
disc has defects but these only affect a few of the supplied example
graphics and I believe it is obsoleted by the newer program disc,
which works on StrongARM Risc PC with RISC OS 6.
Longman Logotron PenDown Plus. Word processor. Boxed with manuals.
Version 1.49. Works on StrongARM Risc PC with RISC OS 6.
Acorn 16-bit Audio Card User Guide. Includes programmers'
documentation of SWIs, star commands, CMOS RAM bits, etc.
----------
Further to my previous email, the follow RISC OS software-related
items are missing the discs and highly likely to be binned unless by
some chance somebody wants them:
4th Dimension - Nevryon (for BBC A3000 & Archimedes 310 & 400 series)
game box and player's guide.
4th Dimension - Apocalypse (for BBC A3000 & Archimedes 310 & 400
series) game box and instruction manual.
Infogrames - Sim City and Populous (IBM PC XT & COMPATIBLES) empty
box.
Krisalis - Chuck Rock (for Archimedes/BBC A3000) game box and
instructions.
Krisalis - Quest for Gold (for Archimedes/BBC A3000) game box and
instructions. I categorised this as junk because defects are reported
when disc 2 is verified and one of the files cannot be copied. I
assume this is not copy protection because the defects don't appear to
be on the last track of the disc.

On 25 Jan 2012 as I do recall,
I'm glad to confirm that all this software (with the exception of the
empty boxes) has now gone to new RISC OS homes!

Whenever I feel like exercise, I lie down until the feeling goes away.
