HI all,
I've found a few boxes of old IBM PC 5.25inch and 3.5inch disks with a lot of software that may or may not be worth extracting and uploading somewhere (i.e. typing tutors, graphic viewers, early word processors etc)
Usually this sort of thing comes in handy once in a while when you're looking for something to open a file.
While most of the games are already available online, I'm not sure about some of the other stuff which is why I'm wondering if it's worth extracting or is it just wasting time and effort?
Then the question of where to upload it to help preserve it and so it's discoverable (archive.org seems the most obvious spot if not here)
Looking for advice or if there is another thread that discusses this (or some other active archival project that is collecting utils etc) then please point me in the right direction.
Thanks all,
Dek
