Ok, Joe. Thanks.
I search mostly Early PC compilers. If I remember well,
IBM had Basic, Cobol, APL, Fortran, Macro Assembler, Logo and Pascal.
I had a couple of them, but any other find is welcome.
My second field of search is about Technical and Hardware manuals.
In third position comes commercial software: Wordstar 3.3, Visicalc,
Multiplan,
Easywriter (I see it in the list), Dbase and so.
Fourth, alternative Operating Systems: CP/M, UCSD Pascal, Pick,
Osasis/Theos,
Xenix, early versions of Netware and Vines, and so on.
Fifth, the unexplored forest of the Utilities :-) There are a LOT of IBM
Utilities
not well known by here. Some other, like the Professional Editor, are known
but
I have it already.
In addition, I should like to know if someone has one IBM PC XT expansion
unit
with boards (and even peripherals installed). I should like to locate one.
Cheers
Sergio
