Couple of scans form a catalog I have had kicking around for a few years. Likely of most interest to the board owner!
Not the complete catalog, scaned at 300dpi then reduced for uploading, pictures of covers at quater the size of the pages I think you'll get the most from ;o)

Enjoy.

Yes, the good old Dick Smith Catalogue. Lots of cheezy fun. I've got similar ones up on the System 80 site

Cor, that's a goldmine I've not visited before. Just a few of the links off your tribute page. Still, now there is the local version to put up beside the Aussie one. So, were we being ripped off? ;o)

Well, anybody else hung onto some paper or hardware from their dim dark past that's now of more interest than a new four core mobile phone?
