--- layout: page title: PC Tech Journal Disks permalink: /disks/pcx86/shareware/pctj/ --- PC Tech Journal Disks --------------------- Over the lifetime of [PC Tech Journal (1983-1989)](/pubs/pc/magazines/pctj/), they shared a variety of files and published source code listings. You *could* type the listings in by hand, or you could use their "PCTECHline" dial-up service and download them for free (aside from any long-distance phone charges). I'm not sure if PC Tech Journal regularly (or *ever*) distributed their software collections on diskette, or archived them in monthly ZIP files, but obviously someone did, because you can find a bunch of ZIP archives at "[THE PROGRAMMER'S CORNER BBS ARCHIVE FROM THE PAST](https://www.pcorner.com/list/MAG)". We've gone through those ZIP archives, filtered out the duplicates, organized them chronologically, and then put their contents onto diskette images that you can easily "Load" and "Save" to and from a PCjs machine. Looking at the dates alone, you can tell that this collection is woefully incomplete, but perhaps more will surface over time. [Let us know](mailto:Jeff@pcjs.org) if you find more. Thanks. ### Directory of PC Tech Journal (1985-12) Volume in drive A is PCTJ8512 Directory of A:\ AUTH PER 1034 09-23-85 2:22p BENCHMRK LSP 640 11-26-85 4:23p CALENDAR PAS 2931 09-19-85 12:23p COMM
