I wonder if it would be good to set up an exchange for OS's and Apps for our vintage machines.
Some of us will purchase machines which have no OS and of course a few Applications would be good to have too.
I suppose there are legalities in giving away copies of software. Copyright does last a long time.
Exchanges would be on floppy of course.
Also, diagnostics for our machines would be nice to get hold of as we'll need to fix our computers sometimes.
I do recall software to write in any format to a 5.25" or 3.5" disk so that copies can be made of almost anything. I think I still have a copy of this somewhere, but can't remember it's name.
Well, what do you think of an exchange for software ?
