Hello. I just purchased my first MAC 10.5 laptop and for the record....I am not computer literate:o) It was suggested to me that I would be able to download an IBM 1985 DOS Filing Assistant program onto my new laptop by registering on this website and requesting how-to information. Kindly let me know if it is possible to download this program onto my new laptap and if so, how to make it hospitable to the DOS program. Thanks for any assistance you are able to provide.

If I'm not really mistaken, you can't download this from here.

Also, posting in all caps (even if it's "only" the subject) is considered as screaming and therefore as rude.

Dominus is right, this stie don't offer that kind of programs for download. If you go to http://www.dosbox.com/download.php?main=1 you can find download-links to a program called DOSBox. With DOSBox on your Mac, you can run old DOS programs on the Mac. But getting those old DOS programs is your own headache.
