Subject: Re: Old MS-DOS & WIN Software
I still have my kits for Win3.1, win3.11 DOS5, DOS6.22, Norton desktop and
and useful software like Paradox4.5/dos, Wordperfect suite, Procom,
Norton commander and Norton utilities/dos and a carload of other stuff.
Most importantly a Laptop (color-486/66) and desktop 486/66 that run
these.

I have some interesting apps and utilities like QEMM 7.5, FoxPro 2.0,
Microsoft Professional Basic, etc and I still look around for a cheap boxed
copies of Visual Basic Pro 3.0, Norton Desktop 2.x or later, Xtree Gold 4.0
Windows among others. Very few people use Windows 3.1 era apps anymore and
the programs of that era tended to have full hardcopy manuals which I like.
I also have OS/2 1.1E, 2.1, 3.0 (blue and red spine), 3.0 connect, and 4.0.
While you can find most of these apps on the internet in image form, I find
that they just sit around on a CD until I can find the legit version with
manuals and then I get interested in using them. The only app I do want
images for is Halo Desktop Imager version 1.02.07, I purchased it new and
still have the manual but cannot find the disks anywhere.
