The PCW to PC Disc Conversion Specialists

The humble PCW may not be the latest technology or use a mouse, but then that suits many people, particularly those suffering from a technology overload or a lack of dexterity which makes controlling a mouse very difficult. However PCWs don't last for ever so if yours is still working but no longer required, list it here and you could make someone somewhere very happy.

There's no catch, no charge, no commission.

We just hate to see good kit ditched when others are very keen to continue using PCWs so we have very successfully operated this 'facilitation' service locally for several years so now, thanks to the Internet, it's available worldwide.
