I picked up another load of early PC software last week. Everything was
in nearly new condition :-) :-) One of the things that I got was a
package of Lotus 123 version 2.01. It's marked as a Government Edition and
has an eagle of the disk labels. Anybody know what this is all about? The
manuals seem to be standard and don't say anything about it having
different features. However I'm thinking that it might be a
non-copyprotected version.

Almost certainly just different software licensing. It's very common.

I ssem to rememebr some issue about the fact that 1-2-3 was
copy-protected (you had to insert disk 1 when you wanted to run it, even
if you'd installed it on the hard disk), and that some Governement
departments wouldn't use copy-protected software (good for them!). Maybe
the 'Government Edition' was a copyable version or something.
