Commodore Document Heaven

Tuesday, April 7th, 2009

Commodore Document HeavenOnline game and software archives for Commodore computers have been available since before the internet became a household standard. It’s great to have access to classic software, but until recently most archives omitted the manuals and documentation that originally accompanied applications. DLH has come to the rescue by scanning thousands of manuals and magazines.

DLH’s Commodore Archive is broken down into sections for both the Commodore 8-bit computers and the Commodore Amiga. PDF versions of books, newsletters, advertisements, and manuals can be directly downloaded from the site. Magazine PDFs are posted to newsgroups and torrents.

Anyone who has scanned printed materials for digital archiving understands that it is a very time consuming process. Of course, the original printed material has to be available to scan in the first place. Put the two together and the massive amount of time and money invested to collect and scan these materials is impressive. I’m sure Commodore enthusiasts everywhere appreciate DLH’s dedication and hard work.
