I use keysoft for windows95 and keynote multimedia in virtual machines. but they are only demos. I would like full copies of this software please. I really really wish that I could make an open source keysoft cloan and an open source keynote multimedia cloan and put them under the gnu general public license. But I am not a programmer so I cannot do that. But someone out there can do it I know that. Its just finding the right person to help. We need to keep the old stuff alive and going. Keysoft for Ubuntu or Keysoft for Linux and keynote multimedia for Linux would benefit people living on SSI, elderly people who want an easy free interface for some word processing email and web browsing. I know assembly language is very very complex but I think that would be the only way for humanware or somebody else to make keynote multimedia for Linux and keysoft for Linux. Oh it would be cool if keysoft for windows95 had a spreadsheet and web browser based on firefox with solona and webvisum captcha solving built in. I don't know assembly language and probably never will. I just don't have the talent for programming and if I do its a little Python or visual basic here and there that's about it.
