Looking for a 17bit PD Disk

Hello,

I had a 17bit disk back in the day, but I can't find it on the net.
As far as I can remember, its theme was Christmas 1990, or Christmas 1991.
So there was initially an intro picture of a landscape covered with snow and then it would load workbench with a gray background.
The contents I can remember were:
1. A Project-X work in progress text file providing info about the upcoming game and some screenshots.
2. A typing tutor utility
3. Klondike
4. Asteroids (i think)
5. Demo of a shareware hard disk program loader utility.
Of course it had many more.

Rings any bells to anyone?

I have pretty well all of the 17bit disks so I will take a look tomorrow. There are literally thousands so may take a while.

Would help if you could remember the numer of the disk or any fragment of it.

Thanks! I also downloaded a big archive with most of the disks, but couldn't find it.
If memory serves, the number was probably 1xxx.

http://www.amiga-stuff.com/pd/ contains complete list of 17 Bit disks. Finding a right disk number will make hunting much easier.

Thanks, I've also searched for Klondike, typing tutor, etc on this one, but didn't find the disk I was looking for.

Don't waste too much time with it, I only posted here in case someone could remember it.
I don't expect anyone to search through a gazillion disks!
