While looking for 3.5" 720K discs to format on a
HP-150 that I bought
(yes, I sometimes actually pay money for classic computers,
especially if they're Hewlett-Packard) from Bill Sudbrink, I came
across a set of diskettes labelled
Uptime: The Disk Monthly
Volume 2 Number 1, for instance, is copyright 1986 by Viking Technologies out
of Newport, Rhode Island, and has the following table of contents:
Loan Calculator, Seasoned Clip Art, Stepping Out Demo, TermWorks,
3D TicTacToe, Hacker Interview, Biorhythm, Gone Fishin' DA,
Little Black Book DA and Preview.
I've got at least five diskettes with pre-printed labels, another half
dozen with
typewritten labels (e.g. "Uptime 2.8") and one labeled "The Best of
Uptime,
Brought to you by Macworld".
Is there any interest or reason to save these, or can I go ahead and reformat
them without fear of losing something someone on this list might want?
You should save them. At least I would. If you don't want them, contact
me off list ;)
