Just sayin'. (We were also using a *nix system for our main data-sharing system.) A few years back a friend who repaired CNC machines gave me the computer to work on because the HD failed and he knew I had a copy of OS/2 Warp3. Though I was able to repair the computer and even re-load the software, too much of their data was lost so it was useless. |
