memory lane by
richard
Anybody here old enough (Heirloom?) to remember running CP-M? I used to
have a Kaypro with it, and ran WordStar and later Perfect Writer as word
processors. When I hit Save on a 30 page document, I could have a couple
of cups of coffee before the pages were all saved.

Sixeye
My dad went to UPS.com to see how much it would cost to ship something.

downloaded it to his desktop but then couldn't find it. Instead, he had
