Are these online? If not, is it because they're still under commercial protections or just that nobody has bothered archiving them for some reason? I have several issues that I could upload if it is just a matter of getting the ball rolling.

There's this, which is the reason they're not anywhere else:

Do we know that he is actually fulfilling the digital orders? The last time I checked, the chances of getting a physical product from Syndicomm was vanishingly small.

I was wondering the same thing. I've tried to order the Softdisk Supreme download and I'm unable to place an order.

From the scuttlebutt I've heard...that has been the case for a few

Anyway, be nice to know for sure. Why I've been staying away.
