I am pleased with "Micro Cornucopia" a journal devoted to the
"Big Board" CP/M system.  It comes out 6 times a year from
PO Box 223, Bend, Oregon 97709.  Subscriptions are $16.

Issues average about 24 pages with hardware and software hints
such as adding a RAM power supply protection circuit, configuring
MODEM7, disk drive jumper options, etc.

So far the 8 issues have all been on the original Big Board, but the
editor is building a Big Board II and I expect future issues will
have articles on both.

A good article on disk drive maintenance in No. 8 saved me
a lot of trouble.  I had a drive that would make errors
after about track 42. ... Turned out it had lost the
head load pressure pad!
 
Back issues are available at $3.
