    Default Free! Archimedes World floppies

    Hi all,

    I was clearing out my attic recently and found a stash of cover floppies from Archimedes World. It seems a waste to chuck them away if someone might have a use for them so they are available for just the cost of postage. There are 46 cover discs randomly scattered across dates from 1992 to 1996, and 3 discs of AW clip art.

    I don't have any hardware capable of reading these so I don't know if they still work but I don't have any reason to think they don't - there's no physical damage or anything, they've just been sat in a box.

    First class postage is £7, second class is £4.

    If it helps I used them with an A4000 back in the day - I suspect they're not RISC PC compatible but I don't know a lot about RISC PC.

    Declaring interest! I'll gladly take them, I have an A4000 that has been entrusted to me for safe keeping by a friend - but has little software. So we can both make really good use of these disks

    Will send you a PM very soon. Cheers!
