Nice! In case you didn't know, I'm another long-time Sorcerer owner.
It was my first machine, although the one I have now is not the one I
originally owned.
Info is hopefully buried in the ESCape
magazines but if anyone has heard of them please let me know :)
No help with the boards, but do you have many copies of ESCape? I was
a subscriber from the beginning, but no longer have any. I'd like to
get copies of some, especially the ones with Ray Bannon's games, and
the one that describes the Toolkit (TLKIT). I have a legitimate copy
of TLKIT but not the list of commands.
I'm also looking for (copies of) the manuals for the WP Pac and DevPac,
which I once owned, and if possible a dump of the DevPac ROMs.

I have the Word Pac and DevPac manuals that I'll be putting up on the Exidy section of
my site. It will probably be a little over a month before I can get to it as I'm
currently traveling a lot for work.

I've since discovered it wasn't the previous owner who did all the mods to
this one but a bloke from my home town who sold it in the early 80s! Coals
to Newcastle and all that :o)

I've got issues 5 to 43 ("The Last One") as well as 4 copies of ISIS (the
Canadian user group) and issues 14 to 20 of the Dutch user group, ESGG..
Somewhere I think is the Toolkit docs.....*rummage*....well, a couple of
sheets marked 'Toolkit' anyway. All official tech docs as well.

Can't help there I'm afraid, but I see David's got them....
Pictures tonight I hope!
cheers
