Terry R. Olsen (tolsen@netcom.com) screamed from comp.sys.apple2:
: : There isn't any "lost software base". If you want a program, you can BUY
: : it. Do you really think programmers will give their programs away so you
: : can be proud of your "software base"?
: Really? Then tell me where I can buy the Apple ][ version of Pac-Man or
: Stellar7...
You can buy the Apple ][ version of Pac-Man from Quality Computers,
actually. Happy?
OTOH: I'm sorry, but there isn't anything called abandonment of software.
Then only reason it's that way is because no one is CURRENTLY making money
off of it. Make money off of it and watch the companies crawl out of the
woodworks asking for compensation.
