Hm, all of those are on Zimmers in various folders (/roms/4k, /8k and /16k). I don't know if all work properly though, so maybe you have tried the existing files and found that they don't run?

I.e. ftp.zimmers.net/pub/vic20.

The zimmers link is not dead, I just downloaded some software there

Make sure your browser link starts with ftp..... and doesn't stick http..... in front of the link

Whew, glad it was a false alarm.

Anyway, I have a complete mirror of the Zimmers site on CD, so the content won't be lost if Bo ever has to shut down his site.

My bad. I used the BBCode URL tag which includes the http:// part automatically.
