# Legacy software & hardware.
Some people might still have 5.25" disks with important data.
I still have tapes, but with nothing other than games which aren't IBM compatible anyway

# I have a ton of it.
Logowriter & BASIC stuff, mostly, but it's paid for and works well on old platforms. But it's Apple-based. I doubt even XP's supposed wizardry could help me. (And I don't have a PC-compatible 5.25 drive. *sighs*)

I have Lotus 1 2 3 in 5 1/4 disks

# Windows XP am teh bestest
and a TJ if you will.
I doing this quiz type thing for charity all about kids programmes/films/books. You get given a clue and you have to say what it is, eg; Tucker, Zammo, Mr Bronson= Grange hill. You see?
The Ones i can't get are;
Harold, Edward, Daisy
Thornogsen, Draculus, Dragon

Any help is much appreciated and any witty smart arse answers will make me smirk, so it's all good and remember kids, it's for charity.
