Missing library GEnie software library
« on: January 29, 2010, 11:42 PM »
Hello,

I found this http://pages.prodigy.net/snogpitch/lib8.html while googleing. But I can't find it on http://cbmfiles.com/genie/index.php. Any reason why? Is there another online-source for the complete commodore related GEnie files?

The latter site is Maurice Randall's site while the former site is Dave Witmer's site.  The only reason for the difference is that Maurice captured the Genie files at a certain time near the end of Genie; Dave captured the remaining files which were posted to Genie between the time Maurice captured them all the way to Genie's final day.  I remember Dave telling me that he has the remaining Genie files on-line, but he doesn't want to advertise it, because he can't have lots of download traffic.

Not to my knowledge.  However, Gaelyne Gasson sells the Maurice Randall-captured Genie files on CD (along with the Compuserve files on CD) at
