TPUG CD

My TPUG CD arrived yesterday although I wasn't able to do anything with it due to time constraints. Anyway, today I copied the contents of the C64 folder to my CF card and inserted that into my Cardco uIEC. I started looking through some of the communications D64 images and realised that looking through all these disk images will take some time, but i'll have alot of fun doing it, however it will have to wait until I have some more time.

I'll post a photo of the CD, it looks cool :)

You US and Canadian Commodore users don't realise how lucky you were to have a user group such as TPUG, in Australia, well where I live in Australia we never had any such groups.
The availability of such a library of software would have been awesome, not to mention the other resources too.

For me and most of the people I knew all our support came from local BBS's, and utility software was scarce because it had no way to get "down under", except by someone calling a US BBS at great cost (international calls were so expensive here in the 80s), so we didn't have anywhere near the variety or availability of software.

Thats it for tonight :)
