I second this post. I would be very grateful if anyone could share the extensions.

I only got Volumes 1 and 2 back in the 80's. Can't remember why I didn't get the rest. It's taken me about 6 months to get the final 2 volumes. Am I right in thinking that Volume 4 Issue 7 was the last one?

Nice Is that going to be mounted at the front in one of the 'drive bays'?

I posted this in the marketplace, but I thought I would post it here as well as I know some of you guys only look at this forum area. I am looking for an original copy of AdventureWriter, does anyone have one they would like to sell? I will consider paying for postage from anywhere

Ooops, more mail from eBay. Swift Spreadsheet just arrived. I already have 2 spreadsheet apps, including VisiCalc!!!

Haha...I don't think those floor lamps will work in my office There are only 7 issues in volume 4 of Atari User, so in total 43 issues of the magazine. Not a huge run, I know, but it's been quite hard to find the final volume.

I have really got to leave eBay alone for a while. Just won the following: Atari User Volume 4 My Atari User collection is now complete (Sorry Atarimania, saw your last minute bid there)

I'm after an original copy of AdventureWriter for the Atari 8-Bit. Not too worried if it has to come from the US (I understand it was only released there), and am willing to pay for airmail.

Hi JD, Oh yes, it will be put to good use. I've already looked at it and the KIX interface is fantastic, and pointers are easier in this version. I haven't had time to look at the newsletters properly yet, but the glimpse I had through them earlier has already clarified a few things and shown new techniques. As I said in my email, all I need now is an original copy of AdventureWriter and I'll be really happy. Again, thanks for a great deal.

Swing by and pick me up on the way there, I've spent thousands I shouldn't have either. Once you get going it's hard to stop, I keep finding more and more things I "need." Tell me about it. 3 months ago, my retro collection was in tatters... it's getting impressive now :!:

WOOHOO...it's arrived All the way from Oregon to Moray in Scotland. I now have in my grubby little hands an actual copy of Kyan Pascal!! Many thanks to JD for selling this to me (don't know if you're on here). No stopping me now, time to get coding

Your 'replacement' looks good sitting there

Well, it's Vodka for me! Excuse the terrible mess - I'm building a new desk but it's taking time as we've been in a deep freeze for a while. Stephen Anderson Looks good to me Stephen. Are you running all 3 monitors from the one PC?

Bad news Ross. Sally and I finished the JD tonight

Still got some Jack Daniels left eh? It must be pretty nice sitting in there with a drink remenissing. You guys are lucky to have spare rooms. I think anyone who doesn't have one would no choice other than to have everything next to the TV downstairs, and that's if the wife would mind, otherwise I guess everything would have to be kept stored away, which is a shame. I guess I'm lucky then. My wife has a PC next to my Mac (just out of shot), so she is often surfing the net (or should I say spending money on eBay), while I get my retro fix. Either that or she's knitting and the sound of those needles drives me insane

Here's a more recent image of my 'retro corner'. It looks like chaos, and it is chaos. (apologies about the spectrum loading screen on the tv ) Gaming and retro system that can be seen are (from left to right) Oric Atmos, 48K ZX Spectrum, ZX Spectrum+, Atari 800XL (with SIO2PC sitting on top), 1050 Disk Drive. And on top of the TV is my Nintendo DS Lite charging up. All of the systems are working and unmodified, except for the ZX Spectrum+ which I have bypassed the RF modulator to give me direct video out.

I think Steve will appreciate that

My pleasure, Mark. I like to help the Atari community in anyway I can. Pengwin

Ross, you need to get yourself a coffee table. I ran my old computers like that for quite a while, until I built my desk.

Well, even at that price, I think you got a bargain.

So you beat me on that!! grrr

I just won a sealed copy of Rescue On Fractalus. It's the newer cartridge version, but it's the perfect replacement for the tape version I sold a while back. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...p;rd=1&rd=1

I've tried several emulators on various platforms, including DOS and Windows. But, I agree totally with dwhyte, Atari800MacX is the best one I've used.

I shall have a look I don't think the version I have does, but I am waiting for version 2 to arrive from the US, so I will check out the manual when it arrives. I have actually put the project on hold until I get the new version of Kyan Pascal (well, it's new to me anyway)

Thanks for the response pps, but I am not using BASIC. I am using Kyan Pascal, which is why I was hoping someone coule point me in the direction of an assembly routine I could embed.
