Lotus 1-2-3 version 1A ancient DOS software
« on: Fri, 07 June 2013, 20:01:43 »
I came across an original Lotus package of software and manual.

Can't test because I don't have a 5.25" floppy anymore, but I think it is OK.

$15 shipped domestic US.

Perfect for your 1986 retro rig.

Such an OG dataentry software, truly a piece of computer history. Wished I had something that could run it.

I have a 5.25" floppy drive, but it uses an old-style connector. I would love to figure out how to rig it to an outboard USB enclosure.

I will have to dig it out.

I have both cable and drive, it is the "naked contact" style where the cable piece sandwiches into the "C-shaped" socket on the drive.
