"Book" Repository?

Post by johnnyrockets »

Hi all,

I tried searching on this topic in the forum and may have missed this answer (if it exists).

A lot of retro computer's have a known website where many PDF books are stored that pertain to that machine. I have seem Commodore websites dedicated to PDF books to help with C64 learning.

Is there such a site for the TS 1000 / ZX81?

Many "newbie" apologies if this is already a widely known topic.


Thanks,


JR

Maybe only temporarily down - I can access this site this morning.

I think the server experience problems.

I've tried with Safari, Firefox and Internet Explorer.

The site is just a blank page, and some times gives 503 error.

For me it is working. I am using Safari browser and just tried to navigate and downloaded two multi page PDF documents with 10 MB and 20 MB without any hassle. ;)

I can get the site to work, when I disable JavaScript.

Okay - then you should maybe enable Javascript and try again. ;)

Sorry, I typed a mistake. I mean the opposite.

The site only works for me, when I disable JavaScript.

(Maybe you have cached some JavaScript from the site that works.)
