Thanks for that, we have a few ESGG Newsletters English versions, being #5 and #14 to #20 so any of the others would be most welcomed 
Thanks.

I slowly converted the ESGG_Exidy-RAMDISK_totaal_pakket_EXRAMDSK.pdf file to English. I first OCRed the original file using ABBYY Finereader 15 and saved it as PDF and as a MS Word document. I then extracted each page, one at a time, the Dutch text and passed it to Google Translate. The English Translation was then copied over the top of the Dutch text in the Word document. The biggest time waster was adjusting the page layout to match the original. It was 19 pages long and took 3-4 hrs to convert

I thought I'd look at the ESGG Newsletters to see how they go. Well it took me twice as long to convert Issue 2 to English, a real pain. Will put them up in the repository . Let me know of any issues.

I'd seriously consider throwing a socket on here for a real time clock. this ramdisk makes the sorcerer very capable of running cp/m 3,
because the common bank being a ram-pac is plenty big enough, and the bank switched 768k gives a lot of pages for disk buffers and
ramdisk.
