I know there was a version of Lotus 1-2-3.

for VAX/VMS that's still in the shrink-wrap.

I have never like the Wordperfect people. They killed my friend's
business. He had vaxes that he rented time on, also charged a huge
amount of money per seat week for WPS training.
The boys from Utah released Wordperrect for the VAX and put him out of

If you have Thunderbird, go to Blogs and News Feeds. Click on the RSS
icon, and enter the info for each site you want to follow.
If you have Outlook, the process is very similar.
If you have Chrome, you can use an add-on, such as

Just a random one... I'm looking for old Zorro II boards made by a company
called Pangolin. It's the QuadMod16 and QuadMod8 which are used with the
Amiga.
If a QuadMod2000 or QuadMod32 showed up I might have slight interest in
that as well.

This LGR guy took 15 min to get to the point. Any point. And his
