Greetings all,

I have re-introduced the coco3 into my life (yay!) , and I'm having a
blast with it. I even have some extra goodies for her on the way from
cloud9 on the way.

I am having trouble finding coco / trs-80 software archives though.

disk, tape, rom , what have you.

I downloaded a 16 gig trs-80.com torrent, but it was all magazines, no
software. Fun to read, but not much help for things to run.

I ordered a dvd from a well known site that sells dvd's, mugs, etc,
but i got stiffed (at least for the last 2 weeks and for teh
forseeable future)

Does anyone know of a no-nonsense software .torrent, dvd source,
megaupload file, ANYthing, where i can get my hands on some
abandonware ?

Thanks for any ideas,
Jayson

timing, gotta love it.

my dvd IS on the way now according to sysop.

I remain interested in repository locations as I've just got through
reading the saga of a once unfettered-access site that has since
closed it's carte blanche access. Pity.

Are there any companies that still actually make copyright claims on
this old software ? Because i sure as heck don't see any trs-80
software purchasing sites online, containing all titles. or any for
that matter.

let's hear about your favorite repository :)

Thanks to the email respondent that taught me how to fish for myself
:)

All's well now.....

Though i do wonder ( in a PURELY academic, non-confrontational
fashion) when trs-80.com will identify the "future need' and enable
fileserver access.

Regards,
Jayson
