Same product. Same seller. Same photo. Very different price. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/zRare-New-Sealed-Dr-Fonty-Font-Editor-for-Acorn-RISC-OS-computers-BNIB/273370409987?hash=item3fa6256c03:g:x-4AAOSwrklVSUNt https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rare-New-Sealed-Dr-Fonty-Font-Editor-for-Acorn-RISC-OS-compute...

Welcome

Thanks. Indeed, better late than never

Yes, the version I have came from APDL and dates from 2004.

I agree about DisKnight. Great at hard disc recovery, but not much use as an undelete tool. There was an "undelete" module (by Vertical Twist I think) that kept a track of deleted files and allowed recovery, but it was messy to use. Another option is to use one of the myriad "Trashcan" tools, that j...

Zarchos,

Have PM'd you.

Paul

Amstrad midi system=old tat
Teac reel to reel tape deck=retro

Agreed. I have an early 90's Nakamichi cassette deck that is IMHO definitely retro

I'm sceptical as to the longevity of the SD card and would like something a little more permanent. I run RISC OS on a Pi Zero and make regular image backups of the SD card using Win32 Disk Imager, which can be downloaded from Sourceforge. That way, if it gives up, I can simply re-image a new card. ...

Was the 1960's system made by Westinghouse Brake and Signal in Chippenham?

Hi Jon, This site claims that Zip 100 discs can be used in Zip 250 drives: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/forum/helproom-1/zip-250-100-compatibility-121216/ I got both my parallel and USB Zip 100 drives off ebay for a few pounds each and the discs seem to be fairly easy to get hold off. The only problem...

Which ZIP USB are you using? I think there are a few different ones.

It is a Zip 100. The model number is Z100USB and model year is 1999.

Folks, Not sure if this has been covered here before, if so I apologise, but there is an excellent way to transfer files from between old RISC OS machines like my A3020 and up to date Windows 10 machines - Iomega Zip drives! As many know, Zip drives are supported by Acorns with bi-directional parall...

Unfortunately it is an EPROM copy I made with a blower not a file, so it will take until I dig out the BEEB, which I intend to do soon.

Let me know if there are still problems as I have a copy which was made from an original. Paul

A bit tricky as my Beeb is stored at the moment. I have a few different copies of this ROM, so I have attached another zip with a couple more. I know that at least one of them works as it is installed in my model B. Sorry about that.

Hi Nigel,

Attached is a straightforward shareware sector editor called !DiscEdit. Usefully it also supports DOS format discs

Hi Martin,

I have double checked and indeed, it is the same manual. Sorry for the false alarm

Paul

Done

I do not have any eduware, but I do have a decent collection of utility ROMs. For example, I not sure if it is already archived, but I do have a pdf of the ISMEC monitor ROM manual (an early release, when it was known as the BBC monitor). I have not attached it as it is huge at 9MB (zipped). Unfortu...

Not as rare as that one. It took me years to find the text for the manual I will have a dig around in my archive. Looking for anything specific?

I used to think that Sleuth was one of the better BASIC debuggers. Attached is the later v1.06 release of Sleuth along with the updated manual.

Thanks

Is this software backwards compatible with 26-bit ARM machines?

I am assuming by "File Manager", you are looking for something like Norton Commander? If so, I do not think that such a thing was ever written. Attached are another couple of utilities that may help. One compares two directory's contents and highlights differences to both directory contents and file...

Looks interesting. I have also contributed for the Issue 1 reprint and Issue 2 which is due out next month. Hope it is worth it

Thanks. That is very useful Attached is a modified version for generating Arc function keystrips.

Feck it. Imma aggravate him by flooding copies for £25...
All I need is a binary and the right chips

Besides, I am needing the practice with my burner

Here you go. Haven't tried it but it looks like it is a ROM image and the files off the disc

We use Windows 10 Enterprise and yes, you can disable Cortana. In fact the IS policy deployment within our company is to have the hideous thing turned off all the time. Also, software updates are under company rather than MS control as you would expect. I have to say that compared to 8.1, it is a va...

Welcome to this excellent forum

I can't seem to play it any better either
