MyAbandonware for download this week is
Big Blue Disk No 32. In truth, this time I am not indicating any great game of old times for you to play, but rather an example of the fledgling computer community around 1989. Remember this was way before the Internet reached the masses, and one of the ways for budding developers of the time to get their programs distributed was to have their creation included in monthly disks that were released from the popular computer groups of the time. So this is a piece of personal computer history really, well preserved and ready for you to explore.
Just download the file from the link above, unzip and launch GO.BAT, either by double-clicking the file or from the command line. The menu is really easy to use considering its age, so you can get around quickly and easily. However, I doubt if you can find anything helpful in this disk nowadays. As I said, this disk is for nostalgia to me and for educational purposes to those that weren't around at the time.
