Re: Bank Street Writer wanted

Thanks for moving this, I think. I've since found out he has a IIgs,
with both 3.5 and 5.25" drives. Unfortunately, he needs a copy of Bank
Street Writer Plus. The regular version will not do whatever it is he
wants to do. I have not found the Plus version at the download sites I
tried. If somebody knows where that version can be found, my brother
can download it and put it on floppy for him. He as a newer Mac of some
sort (any floppy produced on a mac should be compatible with a IIgs I'd
hope?).


Unfortunately, no.  Newer Macs don't even have 3.5" drives, and the
ones that can be added via a USB connection are incapable of writing
800K disks.

You'll need access to an older Mac, or that serial connection...


The gentleman is perfectly willing to buy the software if
somebody does have the Plus version. He offered a case of beer, but I
suspect something a little easier to mail could be arranged.


This may be your best bet, if someone here has it (likely).
