My Utilities Disk

Parsec · 08 May 2006, 15:50

Does anyone have a copy of a utility disk called "Parsec Utilities"? It was a complilation of A500 stuff I did years ago, I doubt it got outside of my local computer club in North Wales but quite a few people used it there.

Perhaps a long shot but I'd like to see it again!

Can you remember what was on the disk?

It had a black and white text-based menu screen (AmigaDOS) with about 40 utils on it. There was loads of stuff - crunchers, copiers, CLIMate, xcopy etc. etc. You pressed F1-F10 (in conjunction with Ctrl, Alt, shift keys) to load the programs up.

Took ages to put together

It was me and my mate at school who formed a group called Parsec, he was going to learn assembler and crack games, I was gonna get stuff and distribute our stuff, and put disks and demos together. It was a thick idea and never went anywhere apart from the utils disk and a couple of game complilations

That sounds really familiar... did it have around 100 utilities on it?

I had a disk I labled as 100 utilities that fits the description. But then again there could have been many similar B&W shift+ctrl+Fkey utility disks.

I will have a look when I get a chance.

Well I guessd the disk would be called parsec utilities or similar!

I had a search for parsec at the file level but didn't find this disk

Thanks for checking

.

If you do find the disk you might find it under another name! Some chump at my computer club ripped off the disk, he didn't change anything apart from the word "Parsec" to the letter "TTFN" on the title page - and I though I was a lamer
