PD1 - long digital music demos. This disk contains 4 edited sampled music demos. The music was sampled from the actual recording, and has been re- mixed to play up to 1.5 mins. This disk is DS/SD and contains: Star Trekin' and Equinox, as well as two mixed demos. Also included is the 'phone demo.

PD3 - the music machine. This is an early forerunner of D.M.S. It is very simple, but allows you to use the 19 digitized sounds supplied to be played using the keyboard or joystick, and also has a very simple editor for creating runable BASIC code. The disk may be a good introduction to digitized sounds, but D.M.S is recommended for more serious work. The commercial software Digi-Studio is the best of all! See later in this catalogue. SS/DD disk.
PD4 - the "this and that" disk. This disk contains something for everyone. It contains some graphics demos, an adventure, a maze game, 2 new versions of DOS (compatable with 2.x), a share buying simulation, a sound fx program in Turbo-BASIC (Turbo required to run this program), some music, and a demo created with D.M.S (not required to run this program). SS/SD disk.
PD5 - Dean's Desktop System (DDS). This is a simple (very!) operating environment. It is based around a main section, and has a calculator, real-time clock, a diary, a simple database, and its own DOS. SS/SD disk.

PD7 (*) - D.S.I.L. Another program for using digitized sounds to create music. It is more advanced than PD3, and is a language based version.

All this comes on a SS/SD disk.

PD17 - Games 1. This one contains a Karate game on side 1, and Cave pac- man, Fortress, Scramble, Hoppo, Pogo, and Wordfind on side 2. DS/SD disk.
PD18 - DOS 4. This DOS was developed by Atari for use with DS drives. It is now PD. It has all the docs. on the disk. DOS 2 disks will need converting to DOS 4 format (convertor on disk) before use. This is quite a nice DOS, and well worth a try. SS/SD disk.

PD31 - Side A of this disk contains TETRIX, which is a great version of Tetris (the make-the-lines-out-of-shapes game).

This is a superb demo, and really shows what an Atari can do! DS/SD disk.
PD32 - DAISY DOT III. This is a new updated version of II, and is SUPERB. This version can be customized at the press of a key to work with: Epson, Star SG/10X, C. Itoh, Mannesmann-Tally 9-pin graphics printers, and even the trusty old Atari XMM801! This disk contains the print program, a font editor and customizer, all docs. and 9 fonts. Quite simply, if you have one of the printers listed, then you NEED this disk. This version is the shareware version. A full version with even more features is offered from the author for $25. This is a DS/SD disk.
PD33 - Antic AMP demo. This is a demo disk for Antic magazine by Price/Gilbertson. BRILLIANT!! On side 2 is a German version of DOS 2.5 (I'm sure you'll find a use for this!!). This is a SD/DS disk.

PD36 (*) - Textpro 4+. A very popular great PD Wordprocessor. All docs. are included on the disk. SS/SD disk. The manual for this disk is very long, and so a print-out will have to be #1.50.
PD37 - Utilities 3. This is a disk full of utils. for the 1020 plotter. I don't own one of these, so I can't say what they all do, but there are lots of them! DS/DD disk.
PD38 - Digitized graphics 4. Another disk full of digitized graphics. This disk takes a slightly different format to the others, because this one was written by a user here in the UK. They could be printed out using the loader on the other 3 disks. Pictures include lots of film pictures, Mrs.Thatcher, and lots more! DS/SD disk.
PD39 - Pictures/HTT demos. Side 1 of this disk contains lots of pictures by the same author as PD38. These are not digitized, but are great to look at! Side 2 contains some new demos from the high-tech-team and tron. Good stuff! DS/SD disk.

PD42 (*) - Snapshot. This disk allows 130XE (or upgraded 800XL) owners to use their extra 64K as a 2nd computer. You can then run applications in one "computer", and switch to the "other". A doc. file is included, but note this disk is by no means intended for novices, and you will need a fair knowledge to be able to use this disk. SS/SD disk.
THERE NOW FOLLOWS A LARGE SELECTION OF GAMES DISKS, WHICH ALL TAKE THE SAME FORMAT. THEY ALL HAVE A MENU ON THE DISK, BUT HAVE NO INSTRUCTIONS, EXCEPT WHERE SUPPLIED IN THE PROGRAM. MOST OF THE GAMES ARE WRITTEN IN BASIC, BUT SOME ARE IN M/C. NOT ALL ARE ARCADE. SOME ARE ADVENTURES, AND SOME ARE MIND GAMES. ALL ARE DOUBLE SIDED, AND SINGLE DENSITY. THERE MAY BE SOME GAMES WHICH APPEAR ON MORE THAN ONE DISK, AND SOME GAMES MAY BE ON PAGE 6 DISKS. WE APOLOGISE FOR THIS, BUT IT IS VERY TIME-CONSUMING TO TRY AND TAKE THESE OFF. SOME GAMES MAY REQUIRE A TRANSLATOR TO RUN. SOME DISKS APPEAR TO HAVE FAR MORE GAMES ON THAN OTHERS. THIS IS BECAUSE SOME GAMES TAKE UP MORE SPACE THAN OTHERS.
PD43 - Games 4. Contains: submarine, devils, convoy, goldrush, missle1, invader, landern, missle2, gun fight, surround, orbits, robot war, black jack, frog, adventure, word square, maze 3D, paddle ball, pro bowl, tank trap, leprechin, snakes, wild west.
