Re: .win files and TDI

Hi, The .win file or QWA file, sometimes called a QXL.WIN, I save to a FAT formatted SD Card and insert this into a Q68 and connect the QL TDI to Q68 with the QL NETwork and transfer the files. Okay, you may not have a Q68, so QLUB by Martin Hill can connect the QL Network to QPC2, which QPC2 can re...

Re: CP/M Books for sale

Hi Derek, I'd be interested in the second one (cp/m software bus) Let me know if it's still available and how much / how to pay. I'm on a work trip to London right now with just my phone and likely to be in wall to wall meetings for 2 days solid (lucky me), so I may be a bit slow getting back to yo...

Re: QL CP/M

Hi, I totally agree with these points, I stopped using CP/M when the CP/M Users group stopped. Moving to the QL was alot better in 1984, but not good, but replacing the Microdrives with Disk Drives and a Trump Card, transformed the QL from a not bad computer to a excellent machine with builtin featu...

Re: QL CP/M

:twisted: Quest CPM 68K Boot MDV.jpgI have found the Quest CP/M 68K boot micrdrive, it was very cleverly hidden in a case with other microdrives?
