New Magazines Page
I’ve added a new page to my website where I hope to include scanned copies of QL-related magazines.
To start things off, I’ve included copies of the old CGH games magazines, the QL Adventurers Forum (all 9 issues) and QL Leisure Review (all 2 issues).
These are downloaded as zipped collections of scanned pages, one jpeg file per page.
If anyone would like to make these into PDFs, please feel free! Equally, if anyone with the time and resources can scan copies of other QL related magazines, copyright situation permitting (we did get permission from Richard Alexander to include the CGH mags) we can add those too.

MDI and FDI Drivers Update
Martin Head has sent me update files for his MDI and FDI drivers, which are now available to download from http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/utils/index.html
The updates include MDV driver v1.04, FDI driver v1.03 and a new ROM image (xDIRom) which is a ROM image with both the Microdrive and Floppy drivers combined.
The drivers are now ROMable, and 16K ROM images are supplied for both the Microdrive (MDI), and Floppy (FDI) drivers. .
Commands have been added to the drivers to create blank Microdrive and Floppy images, without using separate SuperBASIC programs.
Some commands have been added to the Microdrive driver, to convert Martin's MDI images to and from QLay and Qemulator image file formats.
The two update files are just replacement Readme's and code files for the two drivers already on the website.
