Hi Charles,

According to a noted WordPerfect for DOS site (www.columbia.edu/~em36/wpdos), the possibilities are as follows: Fully legal replacement and upgrade copies of *WordPerfect 5.1+ for DOS* and *WordPerfect 6.2 for DOS* may be purchased on CD-R discs from Carol Reese (email: thewp51lady /at/ knology.net), who has permission from Corel to make these sales. Copies can only be shipped to addresses in the United States and Canada; in other countries, probably the best way to obtain a copy is through eBay or a local user group.

A note aside to this: on several abandonware sites, the definition for abandonware is that software has not been commercially available for a few years. This would seem to apply in this case. Could WP5.1(+) not be considered abandonware?

From a retired DP programmer,

Hans

Hi Everybody,

Do you know where I can get ahold of a set of WP 5.1 disks? I can't find mine and I setting up a new PC for a DP client and we need WP 5.1.

Thanks!
