I have some 'YELLOW PAGES' only from
the Acorn User and later the BBC ACORN
USER that I am about to dispose of to
the Waste Paper Reclamation Unit
(Rubbish Dump to the uninitiated)
They cover from 1986 to 1990.
Also some BAU mags from 1991-2
Rather than do this they are available
to anyone who can collect or will pay
the postage which I expect will be
great due to the weight.
Please note there are no write ups
available for the 'YELLOW PAGES'
I also have some BBC Acorn User discs
from September 1991-1992 in ADFS I
wish to sell or exchanges for a
Mercedes or anything useful in the
computer line.
I also have a Viglen 28M HARD DRIVE
for which I am open to Offers or
Exchange if anyone is interested.
This item is very heavy and I would
suggest collection rather that dispatch

Subject: WANTED - Beebug Magscan
Can someone let me have a copy of
Magscan, the index for Beebug
magazine? I was intending to buy a
copy but they sold out. As it is no
longer available to buy, surely it
should be OK to copy it? There seems
no logical reason why copyright
should still apply. (This must
apply to lots of software now, is
there an official 8BS policy?)

I have four BBC Master's for sale.
They seem to have been built just for
the econet system, but upgrading them

one is a plinth and an ELKAY CONBLOCK

Lastly two green monitors to be given
away to the first two buyer's, all
power up and seem to work O.K., could
