Thanks to kimjohn for making another folder of Bits and Bytes newsletters available for scanning to help in repairing the collection that we already have in the repository. These were originally from the Newsletter Editor of the TRS-80/System-80 User Group, Brisbane, who maintained a complete collection.
The folder contained Issues No. 55 through to 90. We have all those currently in the Repository, however, after going through them page by page it was soon discovered that there were a few problems in various editions including pages missing, pages 99% unreadable and others with either lines or words missing or simply unreadable. So these were all repaired and updated to the collection. The problems fixed were :-
#58 - Missing last 2 pages now included
#60 - 8 pages replaced that had words unreadable
#61 - 16 pages replaced that had words unreadable
#63 - 10 pages replaced that had lines of words unreadable
#64 - 1 page replaced that had words unreadable
#76 - 1 page 99% unreadable & 1 page replaced that had words unreadable
#77 - 2 pages were out of page order
#78 - 1 page replaced that had words unreadable
#80 - 2 repeating pages removed
Provided also are ZIP files in groups of 10 of these newsletters for easier downloading, these have all been updated to include these repaired editions.
So in the Vintage Repository in the System-80\Documentation\Newsletters\Bits_and_Bytes folder we updated
Bits_&_Bytes_058.pdf
Bits_&_Bytes_060.pdf
Bits_&_Bytes_061.pdf
Bits_&_Bytes_063.pdf
Bits_&_Bytes_064.pdf
Bits_&_Bytes_076.pdf
Bits_&_Bytes_077.pdf
Bits_&_Bytes_078.pdf
Bits_&_Bytes_080.pdf
