The Micro User Volume 7 Number 3 May 1989

I have amassed an extensive collection of old Acorn Computer magazines. Some are duplicates, and a quick search online will find a good scan of them - sometimes, people offer e-Bay CDs with many scans on them. This issue, from May 1989, seems to be missing from the other collections out there;



This is a key part of my archiving project. My focus when putting together the project was to archive and produce a definitive list of every piece of software and hardware announced or released for the Acorn series of computers (BBC, Electron, Archimedes, etc.). Getting a good scan of each magazine is a good place to start.

The link to this new scan on the Internet Archive is here.

Clares ProArtisan 2 Advanced Painting Image Processing Manual 1993

This is part of a large bundle of BBC/ Acorn Computers manuals that I purchased as a bundle a few years ago. It's slightly frustrating that there are some "blurred" edges in this scan. I have a solution for this now, but I scanned this a few months ago. This manual was produced in 1993 for the ProArtisan 2 software package. This manual is available on the Internet Archive here .
