Subject: Connecting a BBC Micro to a PC
Hi,
In the New Year I'm hoping to link my PC up to a BBC Micro in order to
transfer games and other software across. I've heard that there are software
out there on the net but I'm wondering if any of you have had any level of
success with these software applications? I've heard that XFER is quite
good.
What techniques do you use? Is it realistically possible to use files
intended for emulators to be loaded directly to a BBC B?
Thanks for any advice
Aaron
