Happy 3rd Birthday to the Forum and Repository - ChickenMan - 03-10-2022
We have survived yet another busy year, so happy 3rd birthday to this forum and file repository. Thanks to all those that have contributed to the forum and to the repository throughout the year, without your help none of this will survive.
In the past 12 months we have been busy and there has been many additions to the repository as well as a number of files updated and replaced with better quality scans, complete docs that had missing pages or software to later versions.
AppliedTech-Pre-bee had 13 additional files
Documentation had .......22 additional files plus 5 updated
Software had ................71 additional files plus 10 updated
Public had ....................67 additional files plus 1 updated
Vintage had ................192 additional files plus 85 updated
So thats a total of 365 addition files added to the repository and 101 files updated in the last 12 months. These numbers are down from the last years as new material is getting harder to find. This now makes a file total of just over 10,500 files all up in the repositories!
A big thanks to everyone thats contributed, be it small or large, to help the repository grow for the help to all our members and for the future. Lets see if this can be repeated in the next 12 months though it is getting harder to find new material.
While the forum is mostly Microbee orientated, we support all Australian Made and Produced Vintage computers plus 2 other imports that were well supported here in Australia, being the Exidy Sorcerer and Dick Smiths System 80. We are continually looking for new material to archive for the future, so if anyone can help with anything Microbee or any other Australian Vintage computer, that would be great. We can image disks, scan docs, convert images to pdfs, dump tapes, read ROMS, etc for you if you cannot, just ask.
Four new Folders were added to the Vintage Repositories in the past year :-
Dewhirst
L&L_Australia
RDM_Computers
System_One
Happy Birthday and thanks to everyone.
