- * Welcome to another Customer Hotline column. In case you have missed the
- first three, the aim of this column is to inform you of the latest
- happenings in Customer Support at Acorn.
-
- * Two application notes this month, both to do with running old software
- on the Archimedes range. The first ("6502 to ARM", document number
- 0310063) looks at the issues involved in porting software for Acorn's 6502
- based microcomputers onto the Archimedes range of microcomputers. It
- covers matters such as legality of porting, evaluation of portability,
- transfer of software and resources available to assist the porting. The
- second ("Archimedes 6502 Emulation", document number 0340011) addresses
- the problems involved in running software under the various 6502 emulators
- available and covers such things as directly addressing the screen,
- emulating the Disc Filing System under the Advanced Disc Filing system and
- using operating system routines. Both application notes are available on
- request from Customer Support as usual.
-
- * Just a reminder about writing to Customer Support. To ensure the mail
- reaches us quicker, the proper address is "Customer Support, Acorn
- Computers Ltd, Acorn House, Vision Park, Histon, Cambridge, CB4 4AE".
