Those who have a runnable copy of Word 1.0 for Mac may wish to keep it
runnable. The file format it generated is readable by nearly nothing

(possibly the only one ever written) for an African language (Pulaar)
written by a local professor in the 80s using Word 1.0. Since I've
never been a machead, the only thing that saved us was that one of our
student employees happened to have an old Mac laying around that had
this version installed.
