PC Disks from SynTax (3)

Single disks cost œ2.50 or see the contributions section to know
how to get one free!  Please add œ1.00 to total cost outside
UK/Europe to cover postage.  Remember to state disk size required.
Any games which require more than 1 disk are noted.  From now on,
it will be assumed that users have at least 1x3.5" HDD drive, VGA
and a hard disk. If you don't, please enquire whether programs
will run on your setup.  Many games, especially the text
adventures, will also run on the ST or Amiga using a PC emulator.

Some programs are provided archived using PKZIP or similar. To
unpack them:
1. Make a directory on your hard disk and copy all the files from
the floppy disk(s) into it.
2. Change to the directory and type PKUNZIP *.ZIP. This will
unpack all the zipped files in one operation.

Remember too that some old programs may run too quickly on modern
machines - if you get this problem, return the disk for exchange.

Please note that any disks with WZ95 in brackets after their
description require WinZip 95 or a similar 32-bit package, which
unzips archived files while retaining the long file names, is
required. This can be found on Disk 988 or you can send me a blank
HD disk when you order and I'll provide a copy.
