I'd also like to offer my thanks to those involved. It's good to see a happy ending to this saga.
Just an FYI, it looks like I will have to download the file at home, because when I try at work, the anti-virus software in our SonicWall firewall appliance blocks the download, saying it detects the "Dos.Cursor" trojan.

It looks like a really cool list of stuff that nobody has access to...
Thanks!

Greetings All,
I'm back from my Canadian fishing adventure. July fishing in Ontario isn't
as exciting as June fishing but still had alot of fun.
At any rate, I returned home to a gift from my wife: WarGames on DVD
with feature length commentary by the writers and director. Fascinating
stuff. They claim to have invented Wardialing, which I'm more or less
certain was invented by Draper with a prototype of the AppleCat modem.
Now I have to plow through the Sun equipment I picked up in Indiana, the
vax equipment I got locally, some roach infested commodore equipment
I bought from Florida last year, setting up the new home for retroarchive.org
and about a dozen web sites I'm working on. =-)
It's nice to be busy. ;)

If no one has stepped up yet, I can take on this job. I found only
the first five issues scanned here:

These may be online already here. Maybe you can compare your stack to
these titles:

Cool. Thanks Dave.

I was told that Don Maslin can help me with boot disks for some old CP/M
computers. I need boot disks for the following:
Morrow Micro Decision MD 1
Epson QX-10
several different Kaypro models
I tried to make a boot disk for the Morrow using 22disk and the 'STDCPM22'
file at 'www.retroarchive.org'. 22disk did not have a file format for the
Morrow MD 1, so I used the format for the Morrow MD 2. (As far as I have
been able to find out, the MD1 had full height floppy disk drives and the
MD2 had half-height drives, but they were the same capacity). When I tried
to use the floppy to boot the computer, it would spin for about 15 seconds,
then the computer would reboot.
I was making the boot disk on a computer which had a 360K floppy drive.
Thanks!

I thought Don?s archive had been lost, when was it recovered? After looking through that, I?ll have to look into my Kaypro 2, once I check out my 486.

You're quite welcome Paxton. I just put the Bondwell images up for you.

Interestingly enough, the Library of Congress emailed me a few years ago
asking permission to archive retroarchive.org. I consented of course. :)
