An Intoduction to Basic...

Hi,
Does anyone know where I can get copies of the cassettes that came with the 'Introduction to Basic" series that I can use on my shiny new SD2IEC?
I had both parts in the early 80's, long since lost (Mum binned them).
It would be a great blast of nostalgia to load them again
Thanks!

Thanks!
A quick look round seems to indicate that I can extract the .prg files from taps so I'll give it a shot.
As a side note when I first got a Vic in 1982 if anyone said I'd have 2Gb of storage attached to it I'd have laughed. Mind you I had no idea what a gigabyte was in those days...

In '82 me too
In case of problems, just use this tool:

(EDIT: sorry but it's not for .tap as far as I know; but you can use the Vice monitor: alt+m, s "filename.prg" 0 <start_address> <end_address>
EDIT2: FinalTap is ok

Or from here.....
Intro to Basic pt.1

I made the .d64's as soon as I got my SD2IEC.
