Is there any market for OLD Mac software?
« on: April 04, 2012, 02:36:53 PM »
I have been doing a little spring cleaning and have found that I have a BUNCH of OLD macintosh software. Not sure what to do with it...throw it away or would/could there be someone with an older mac who could use it. I"m talking software for my first Mac...Performa. Would you believe a Global Village modem.  blink.gif wacko.gif unsure.gif

Can't be positive, but I'd think anyone still using OS 7 (and earlier?) would probably already know where and how to find software for it! I have a friend who refurbishes old Macs (even Apple ]['s !!! ) and I know he has copies of just about every OS and the programs that ran "back then!" Of course, they didn't come on DVDs then! Maybe there's a museum in your area?! wink.gif

THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF COUNTRIES
Those that use metric = #1 Measurement system
And the United States = The Banana system
