I am attempting to resurrect a decrepit HeathKit H89 in order to give to
the local department of parks and recreation.  I have such things as a C
compiler and a programming oriented text editor, all of which will be
completely useless to the computer illiterates who will be inheriting the
machine.  So I need to find a source of software.  You know, the basics
like a word processor and maybe a spreadsheet.  I also need a source of 8
inch floppies, preferably double sided double density but beggars can't be
choosers (the H89 also uses 5-1/2 inch disks which are HARD SECTORED.  I
hold no hope for ever finding one of those again).

Please reply by EMAIL as I almost never read this newsgroup (though I will
try for a couple of weeks in order to catch all replys to this).

Thanks,

Charlie Bounds             Charlie@cup.portal.com
