Re: ANIX, Lazer Pascal, LISA, and Randall Hyde

    Treasure Chest Project contacted him something like a year ago,
about his LISA software. Basically, because he has given the rights of
LISA and ANIX to Brian Fitzgerald then, I had to speak to Brian to get
them reclassified as "Freeware" status.

    But it is really nice of Randall to scan those box scans of the
software boxes, it would make really nice pictures to store.
