Thanks for the offer but I doubt it's
worth the effort. The complete
WordStar package including all the xxxxStar companion programs were
included with many early PCs and should still be relatively easy to find. I
had (have?) the complete set with a Sanyo 550 that I bought in 1983. (I
won't even talk about what a piece of crap the Sanyo was!)
But the package sold for PC (and Sanyo) was MS-DOS 8088.
The Northstar package was Z80.
Was it CP/M or N*-DOS?
I don't remember. It's been a while since I've seen it. It was on hard
sectored disks for the NS so I'm guessing that it was for the NS OS. I
think I had it for CM at one time, probably for the Osborne or Kaypro. Hmm,
now that I think about it I'm pretty sure that I have it on the hard drive
of my SB-180.
Should I even bother bringing boxes of MicroPro diskettes to VCF?
You bet!
