Commodore Disk User update (needed mags)

Post by Mort »

Hi guys just wondered if you had any of the following?

Commodore disk users (missing or damaged issues with pages missing)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
CDu Nov/Dec 1987 issue 1 (needs better scans as hole punch used on mags)
CDU Jan/Feb 1988 Issue 2 (needs better scans as hole punch used on mags)
CDU Sept/Oct 1988 issue 6 (complete issue)
CDU Mar/Apri 1989 Issue 9 (complete issue)
CDu`s from July 1989 to March 1990
CDU December 1990
CDU march 1991 need pages 17,18,49,50 (coupons cut out),
CDU November 1991 onwards!

If you do and could either lend or scan them that would be great, will pay postage or recompense you with a free dvd etc if you can help.

Cheers Mort :D

Hi. Just like to say that this is a great service you are providing by scanning all these magazines from yestadecade. Being able to read all these old mags nearly makes my life complete.

I just received the Zzap64 DVD today, thanks for the prompt response.

I've got a complete set of CDU except for issues 1 and 2. The are all in binders and are in good condition. My last issue is October 91 :(

Obviously these are very precious to me (my precious!). Email me if you want to arrange something.

You also might be interested in the issues of Popular Computer Weekly I have. It wasn't bad as magazines go, but being once a week, and 30p, who could resist. I have issue 1 thro to the last issue with a glossy cover, about 30 I think. When they started using cheap toilet paper to print on I lost interest :D Remember Citizen Pain?

My all time fav to see scanned would have to be Your Computer.

October '91 was the last... Star Utilities or whatever it was called on the cover...

Was a great little mag, definitely for the techy. My friend's granddad used to get it. Most of it went over my head, but I did manage to copy most of the coverdisks one weekend!

Cheers Prof/Andrew,
At least now I know It is a finite source (worst thing is when mags just disappear without a final issue). Not far from completing that set then :-)

Thanks Stephen :D

Hi Guys just an update, the missing mags have now all materialised so in the process of scanning and completing the inlay for this set, also there is another set of mags straight out of leftfield which you may or may not know about, but these are of historic interest and will be released at the same time as Cdu set just before Christmas . Clue it is a beardy type Computer magazine from the pre games age :D
