Zip Disk Collection

Original post by Larry Anderson

Looking at that massive disk image collection I had posted about there is LOTs of cool stuff within.

- http://www.vintagecomputer.net/commodore/64/baltissen/

There are 153 or so images in the collection and maybe 10 or 12 of them are 64 or VIC-20 (VIC-20 cartridge ROMS!).  Though I think the 64 education disks can run on the PET if you shift the files over to PET BASIC start (it includes Lemonade, I didn't try it though).
The programs are either in English or  European language(s) (at VCF one person commented he saw Dutch on one image) probably  2/3rds English.
It looks like it may have been some club library as some attempt was taken to organize the files and label the images (i.e. the 2xA & B disks are graphics demos and utilizes) Some of the categories I saw

Games (some gems, I stumbled on Trek-X in there as well as some other titles, galaga, scramble, another invaders (80 column too), didn't look at many of the non-English file names)
Cursor (Looks like the complete Cursor tape magazine run is in there)
80 Columns games disk(one dedicated to 80 column PETs, all the games files end with .
Education (nice stuff)
Graphics Demos (look for the Holyhalter demos, nice 3dish animation loops)  One of the demos has the stock market numbers for 76/77 and a world clock with the commodore offices, kinda cool.
Sound Demos & Music (didn't look too hard at that had some tunes and sound box demos to play and I think an editor or two, did not notice if there were any Petunia or MTU sound board programs)
Word Processing (Lots of goodies including some commercial relics like Wordcraft, Wordpro, etc.)
Business (includes Visicalc(!), Jini, some accounting progs, etc.)
Light Pen games and demos (Robert, software for your light pen!)
Development (assemblers, MAE, some languages, like Comal, Forth, and Pascal)
Utilities (quite a variety, disk tape, printer, graphics and BASIC aids, etc.)
Communication (a couple dedicated to modems and other RS-232 devices.)
Hi-Res Graphics Looks like a hi-res 320x200 board by W&W and also mention of a color board (?)
Pic Chip Programs (IIRC pic chip was a text graphics manipulation ROM that added scrolling and other effects)
ROM Images (original upgrade, 4.0 seem to be in there as well as some add in ROMs like the Palo Alto ICs toolkit ROM, and Rabbit)
Programming tutorials.

Definitely a worthwhile download and look for PET enthusiasts.

Are you talking about my lightpen(s) for the C64/128 or my lightpen for the PET(s)?  :-)

If this is from Ruud B.'s collection, it was very nice of him to post it up.

For the PET, of course.
