Dang. I generally don't consider myself the nostalgic type but I actually got emotional seeing some of those CD covers.juverax wrote: ↑Tue Sep 29, 2020 5:36 am https://archive.org/details/walnutcreekcdrom The Walnut Creek CD-ROM Collection (SIMTEL)
If I could go back and do it all over again I'd buy a big CD pressing outfit and distribute stuff like that for free.

Addition to "Orphans and old Applications":
https://www.sac.sk/
Has old (very old) and some recent additions.
It is not limited to old versions of anti-virus apps.
It can be a useful resource if you have to use an old PC.
I used this site in the early 2000x, but I could not remember the URL when I uploaded my first posts (see above in the thread).
