Subject: [cctalk] Re: SCO on Virtualbox
Oh, for
the love of god, it wasn't that difficult.
We were an SCO shop for a decade. Maybe more. It worked really well for us.
We had WordPerfect, Lotus and dBase.
You want difficult, try using Tandy Xenix with Scripsit, Multiplan and filePro16+
What was so difficult about that? I did it the first time on a
prototype machine
and then later on production machines. We had secretaries using
Scripsit and budget
analysts using Multiplan all the time. I always preferred Multiplan to
Visicalc.

Wasn't there a joke back than, that if
somebody figure out, how to
install SCO on any machine, he was considered a "computer guru"? My efforts have failed. My host is Ubuntu 22.04
with Virtualbox 7.0.10.
I'd be curious given the nature of SCO if anyone has
posted the goods to
install any of them, and what versions.
