+Allan Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Here are a bunch of ATRs of different 8-bit software. There are a few Softside Magazine programs, some Compute programs, the Parrot sound digitizer discs, the rare Bar code reader disks with contest entries that came form the company, and some other stuff. There were a couple of disks I couldn't save like Softside Issue #42, which had a bunch of errors on it. I don't know much about sector editing disks so I don't know if I can save it. Enjoy. Any questions, just ask. Allan 8_bit_disks.zip 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrnukem Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Thank you for the disk images. Any new software for the collection is welcome. I saw a Parrot on e-bay recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 I scanned the entire Parrot manual. If anybody wants it, let me know. It's big though. About 50 meg. Allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Allan Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 If anybody is interested I am willing to sell or trade my bar code reader and software. I'm mostly looking for disk drives but I might consider other 8-bit stuff as well. Allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fibrewire Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 What do you want for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) I've been think about it but can't really decide the value. I know it's extremely rare (never seen one before) plus the one I have has an additional disk and manual that was part of a contest they held. The disk has a number of entries to the contest. Here's the whole set. Short of a really good money offer I think I would like to use it for trade. I would love to have a Xff551 drive. I need a couple of more 1050's (I'm down to one working one).

+DjayBee Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Here are a bunch of ATRs of different 8-bit software. There are a few Softside Magazine programs, some Compute programs, the Parrot sound digitizer discs, Do you still have the Parrot disks? If yes, then please make an image with your Kryoflux because they are protected with weak sectors and there seems to be no full dump on the net. I am able to recreate a working ATX from your image but a real dump is preferable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sold the whole thing to (I believe) fibrewire. I am angry that I did not scan the manuals but it was before I got into scanning Atari manuals.

+DjayBee Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 No problem because meanwhile we have a flux dump from Bill Lange. Yours would only be a possibilty to verify the dump. Your version is identical to "Parrot v2.0 (1986)(Alpha Systems)(US)". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Bill had some disks himself but many of the disks he flux dumped were mine. So I am assuming his Parrot disk dump is from my disk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
