Christos Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Does anyone want the Atari ST docs for Microsoft Write as well. Atarimania has the UK docs on this.

James Yes it did but I will re-upload it : Cricit Cash Register and Inventory Control.zip Have a look at my server at spynet.ddns.net port 30 , there is a lot of stuff there that I have collected in the last 10 or 20 years. Also there is a BBS up and running for over 5 years now , its PC run Spy Net BBS, its file section is gone as all of my files were on drive F which crashed irreplaceably..... thank God I put most if most all of the BBS files on my server..... Its a QNAP NAS server, I am going to get a rack mount server from Don server drives are really cheap and fairly big , one rack mount server will hold about 12 server hard drives....

Goochman Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Anyone know if this system had widespread use in any country or company? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Thanks to this thread, a bit of a mystery has been solved after all these years for me! ha Not sure about widespread use, but a store called Software Plus (Arlington Heights, IL and other Chicagoland locations) that sold Amiga hardware/software used either a 520 or 1040ST and (presumably) this software to run the front and back end of their stores. Makes sense now why they had that slick hi-res b/w screen as it's required for this particular program. And yes, I remember a brief conversation with the owner recognizing the irony of an ST being used to run the business end of an Amiga store. That did not sell Atari gear. At all. Ever. Was just a business decision to him, and wasn't passionate about either platform. Though he hired the president of a local Amiga user group to run the store. 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
