Subject: Acorn 32 bit clear out
Hi,

I am having a big clearout of Acorn stuff that I no longer need, due
to moving house I need to get rid of it so am looking to sell it off,
not sure how much it is worth, if anyone is interested then let me
know with an offer, any questions please ask and postage will be at
cost, no more, not out to rip people off. Hopefully it will be of
interest as I'd hate to have to chuck it in the skip.

A lot of publishers used copy protection schemes with non-standard
sectors on the disk, which will fail to verify but will actually be
fine. This is particularly the case with most 4th Dimension games.

Some nice stuff there, I hope it finds a good home.

That's what I thought.
