I recently bought word perfect 6.0 from a local thrift shop and I found out that it needs a key to install, but I didn't get a key I just got loose floppies and no key.

Does one really *need* this to write anything these days? There are much better and up to date things available for free.

No, not really I just kinda want a basic word processing program that is compatible with windows 98.

Never mind I found my old cd of windows home essentials 98, it includes word 97 and Microsoft works 4.5, I'm happy now.

When I had a HP Deskjet 520, I bought an ink cartridge that came with a CD called "Big CD". It came with:
- Hanes T-Shirtmaker
- Corel Printhouse
- Calendar Creator 4.0
- Corel WordPerfect 6.1
- Key Label Designer
- Photofinish 4.0
- CorelDRAW 4.0
- ...and Compuserve 3.02 (compuserve in Spain?)

All the software was for Windows. That version of CorelDraw and WordPerfect didn't require a serial number (and all were full versions, but Corel had no extra TTFs or cliparts).

I've installed it in a virtual machine, and it was a spanish version. I don't know if there were english versions of that CD.

P.S.: My CD is p/n 5182-7060A, but it can't be ordered in HP partsurfer.
