Hi,
thanks for sending the post.
I run DOS on dedicated machines specifically built to support the speech
hardware require and the various screen readers.
Do run wp 6.2, several times a day actually.

I bought the Corel Linux 1.0 with WordPerfect 8 box edition with tux doll.
I
didn't like that WP at all, and remember lots of trouble installing Corel,
and
particularly as well with its non-Grub bootloader, but remember no details
any
more. All of it was before I had broadband, which made updates
frustrating.
