I bought a copy at a mall in Nashville TN some 30+ years ago. I was working at an airline at the time and was interested in the crew scheduling problem, as well as all things AI related. I never got too far using Prolog on that particular problem. I found the disks and manual like 13 years ago a

35 years ago I got tasked to write a simple expert system in Turbo Prolog because I was familiar with Turbo Pascal. The goal was an application to assist new members of the help desk. I have vague recollections of having to define rules to evaluate answers to simple questions. What I remember

He meant to say Prolog, not Pascal. Regardless if you want to alleviate all the fuss and mess of running 16 bit wares on modern h/w, just look for a 32 bit cast off. Many appropriate mobos can be had on epay for a song. Now no one I know wants to spend the next 40 years writing 16 bit apps. But
