>I had WordStar version .92, which ran on my IMSAI S-100 computer. We could do everything needed with just 64K of RAM, including running dBase II, using CP/M and MP/M operating systems. How I miss those 8" floppies! :)


You had floppies? ;-)

Actually some of the early PCs -- i.e. before the IBM PC -- did not have floppy drives. The storage mechanism was cassette tape.
