Hi Matt,
I think they contained interviews etc. I've got a freebie, which came with
an edition of A&B Computing. It contains a demonstration of what's possible
with a Music 500(0) system. I think it was called "A&B Brothers - the 'C'
rap". Really cheezy IIRC :-)
I hope to digitize it one day...
Cheers,
Eelco
