Talk:Big Blue Disk

Who can forget the lively exploits of everyone's favorite stick figure of doom, the one and only great Alfredo?! If you actually have one of these rare disks, throw a party and I'll bring the popcorn, and a crowd of people who will thank you! ;) - Ayelis 06:30, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Oh wow. This is a large chunk of my childhood here. Pre-Internet days this was a great way to get cheap software. I think my father subscribed to this thinking he'd get useful business software, but I kept him on it for the games. I think we still have the disks in a closet somewhere. I'll flesh out what I can when I have time back home. Dibs on the Dark Designs and Legends of Murder pages. 64.238.49.65 20:42, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Dan Harrison also created an MSDOS utility called Conversion Tables (appearing in Big Blue Disk #48)vthat, as the name implied, provided an easy to use conversion utility for various science and engineering quantities (length, mass, volume, pressure, power, energy, temperature, etc. along with a "generic" table that the user could define for their own purposes. I used it for decades on my work computers and still have it on my home machine.
