The contents of a CD-ROM of freeware and shareware Atari ST software, published by the Seattle Puget-Sound Atari Computer Enthusiasts group. The CD is dated October 21, 2000.

But I was able to copy the vast majority of the files off of the CD and compress the collection into a .ZIP file. A few (6 to 7?) of the files just couldn't be read from the CD-ROM, but most of it is properly...
