Re: Dragon 32 was the number 2 computer*... for a bit!
The early to mid 1980s were a fantastic time for home computing. I don't think we'll ever see the same again.

Can anyone recommend a computer monitor that works well with the Dragon 32? Links to examples on eBay would be great (if that's ok with the admins, of course). C...

Re: This is crazy - Double Disk drive for £445

Thanks for the links Zephyr. The Radio Shack CCR-83 looks ideal.

Greetings fellow Dragonauts!

Recommendations for Text-based adventures
Can anyone recommend any good text-based fantasy adventure games in the archive for download? I used to play Ultimate Adventure 4 back in the day, and would like to try similar games.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Using a Dragon for the first time in 29 years
The Dragon 32 that I ordered on FleaBay was waiting for me last night when I got home from work, and after everyone was off to bed, I hooked it up to the TV in the living room. When that little 'OK' prompt appeared I was instantly transported back to 1983 in a wave of emotional nostalgia. I spent th...
