Re: Introducing Bill Bovill

I came across the "First" and "Second Book of Programs for the DSW" several times these years. I had several copies in my hands, and I think it was a "best seller" those days.

I suppose D.S. Publishing made a lot of money with those books :-)

Re: Introducing Bill Bovill

Dear Bill,

it's a real pleasure to meet you here on the message board! :)

I read your article, what a nice reading!

I wish you could send me scans of the documents you got from Dick Smith, or whatever stuff you kept for all these years (other program listings, letters, etc.)

Re: Carlsson's creatiVision / Laser 2001 collection

I own at least 3-4 working cassette recorders, but all are in mono. :x The tape function on my kitchen radio no longer works at all. Right now the only recorder that separates left and right is my stereo set in the livingroom. I'd rather not buy a fifth tape recorder solely for this purpose, so pos...

I got all your scans - thank you!

Congratulations and a special "thank you" for providing me pics of the newly-discovered Statistics I tape in "Creativision" version. It's a superb finding, please contact me if you ever decide to sell it! :-)

Re: Carlsson's creatiVision / Laser 2001 collection

Nope, no stickers on the tapes. That is why I explicitely wrote international editions. I will get back to you with scans and requested info later on. OK please scan everything at 300 DPI and save as PNG. when scanning BASIC manual, please remove front cover and pages from the plastic spiral. scan ...

Re: Carlsson's creatiVision / Laser 2001 collection

In the category "odd trivia", I noticed the Statistics 1 cassette has a label on top of another, generic label. I carefully lifted the outer label to find out that it is a Sony branded tape, C60 or thereabouts. I don't know if this is original CreatiVision or if the distributor got to copy the cont...

it's not catalogue number, it's just "part number" of the manual
