Hi All - Can anyone out there help get this finished off:


The Amstrad User - CPCWiki


Someone must have the magazines in order to scan all the covers of TAU. I've done most but I'm all done now.. who has the rest? Who scanned those other covers? Any one got the PC User+ TAU mags? CP/M User? where are you?


Also this one: Computing With The Amstrad - Australian Edition - CPCWiki


Any one got any of those mags? The following users seemed to have edited those pages - you guys got anything?


CPCLER, Cpcmaniaco, MacDeath, Nocash, TrickyNZ


Thanks in advance anyone that can help!!!!


Cheers.

I checked out my small TAU collection after the last time this was discussed (was it you and CP/M User?) and of the gaps in the two collections mentioned at the time I found I have August & November 1989.  I sorry to say I just haven't done anything about scanning them yet...  Looking at the ones that are scanned and up now, it appears you have been only doing the articles rather than the entire mag?

I know I have some of these, a dozen maybe.  I wont be able to check on them for about a month though.

I know, I'm sorry cause I know I said I would do something about this. I've been having problems with regard to getting my TAU magazines which are in their near original state from the day they came from the Newsagent and the other problem is the size of the files once it's all being put together. :( I'm trying to find a balance where I can get a good resolution at a reasonable size, but it's difficult with the scanner I've got and I know how frustrating it can be when you're trying to type out a Type-in from a poor quality scan. :(
* Using the old Amstrad Languages :D * And create my own ;)
* Incorporating the Firmware :P
* I also like to problem solve code in BASIC :)   * And type-in Type-Ins! :D

Axelay: Thanks for your prompt reply. Glad you have some of the other mags. All hope is not lost then  :D

TAU: 55 & 58 ? Brilliant. would like to see them scanned so I can read too! Yes - check out your CWTA mags... for sure.

But of course - No pressure - when you get around to it. I think I scanned the entire earlier ones as it was all CPC, as other machines were mentioned, I started skipping those parts and also some Adverts (I know, shame on me!). So essentially they contain CPC content only - which is a great start nevertheless. Other are welcome to add extra pages / better quality scans of course too...


CP/M: Regarding your TAU's - at least I think you only need to scan 14 or so mags now. So don't feel like you have to scan your entire pile! But glad you are about still and will get onto it eventually. Actually, you told me what ones you had already...


TAU: 1,2,3,4,8,11,59,63,64


The PC mag + TAU: April, June, July, August,Sept


Is that right? That would fill some great gaps... We would almost be there with those done!
If I can help, let me know? i.e I don't mind naming the files, formatting, cropping, uploading etc If you wanted to palm off the raw scans to me? Same goes to you Axelay or anyone that has any of these Australian Mags...I work in IT. Always online... I don't mind this kind of work... it's a change from coding and client demands....
