- There are several zip files of PLUS/4 stuff. Several are

- like UTILITY.ZIP, UTILITY.TXT etc that are all NTSC files.
- A couple of hundred files in those zips.

- Yes, but if you subscribed to COMMODORE CEE disk magazine you
- would have received in our last issue a tutorial on how to do
- NTSC fixing of all thos PAL format programs and demos.

- Again, if you subscribed you would have received everything from

-
- There are 2 manuals. One for the computer and one for the built-in
- software. Sorry, I sold my last spare.
-
- There is also a programmers manual but it is a scarce item and over
- 400 full 8.5" x 11" pages. A little too much to scan or xerox.
-
- For more info contact me in e-mail.
