I just went through the floppies, and of those you mention I have WorkBench
1.3 (most likely mine is a Swedish version since it says "(c) Commodore AB"
(AB is for a swedish company that is on the stock market)).
I've also got Deluxe Paint II (and Print II).
No Kickstart floppies at all (there's probably one in the still sealed
Workbench 3.1 batch)

>I have no idea what they all do!

Since this is a (surv)PC list I don't know if Amiga is OT or not, on the
other hand it's definately "surv".

Workbench is the dominating OS (along with it's CLI version AMIGA-DOS) for
the AMIGA (there are some alternatives that have come in the recent years -
among them Linux (can't be used on my machine unfortunately but I did
manage to borrow a book from a friend so I might understand how the machine
works anyway)).
KickStart is IIRC what you need to boot with to start WorkBench (so is
WorkBench actually an OS?).
I guess you can figure out what Deluxe Paint III is for a program yourself ;)

Now if we could figure out:
a) is anyone (including myself) interested in the floppies you have
b) how to copy the floppies (they can't be read in a PC floppy station
since the AMIGA is diffrent on the physical level (but format changes this
so you should be able to format them if you want))
