Software
========

Micro Primer Software pack 4 - BBC B - Contains 2 tapes & a book. Untested
(can't, no BBC B any more)
Quantum Link Program Disk - for C64/C128(?) - Mentions programs like
Backgammon, Contract Bridge, Chequers etc. & says "Games can only be used
while connected to Q-Link". May be useless... Untested, have no suitable
disk drive.

There may be other stuff coming up soon.
