53 more Goodison Educational Disks for the Microbee - ChickenMan - 06-01-2026
Thanks to davidm for making these original disks available to be imaged. They were all on normal Microbee DS40 5.25" disks that imaged 100% error free on my Floppyio unit. They had no copy protection and all autoboot to the program.
Goodison Software was a major supplier of Educational programs for the Microbee back in the 80s. While we already have all these programs in our collection, unfortunately they are mostly on composite disks and difficult to find individual programs. These are all original disks with each having an individual program or a series on an auto-booting disk. Basic is on each disk in the form of File1.hex and File2.hex. The disk labels were also scanned and included here.
So in the MbeeTech repository in the Microbee/Software/Education folder we placed
