Umm..... Standard loadout would have probably been a customized version of
DOS (ZDS actually had a couple cool additions) with some of the following;
WordPerfect V5.1, Lotus 1-2-3, dBase III or IV, and Harvard Graphics.
Least wise those were the standard apps available in the late 80's early
90's. Since it's listed as a Honeywell Bull, probably software to connect
to a DPS-6 or DPS-8 class Mainframe.
