Neil Larson has informed me that all his older DOS based software tools are locked up in a California storage unit that he hasn't visited in a couple of years.

So, can anyone here dig up a copy of MaxThink '96 for DOS so Neil can redistribute to some of us that want to run it on Linux?

Thanks!

Buckeye,

I have Max93.zip that Neil sent me back on 3/25-26/12 which was supposed to be Max 96, but maybe it wasn't? I can I get it to you? My email is advoh @ yahoo .com

Best,
Norm

Norm,

Thank you for your offer. I'm trying to work with Neil Larson and to respect his intellectual property rights.

Did he email an electronic copy of MaxThink to you or did he send you a physical disk?

I'm trying to encourage him to start redistributing the DOS version of MaxThink along with some of his other tools and electronic versions of his manuals for use on Linux.

I'll let Neil know you still have a copy if he needs it...

Thanks!

Rick

Sorry Buckeye, My bad... typo of Max93.zip v Max96 in my last post..

I just checked again and indeed I have a zip file, sent from Neil on 3/25, labled Max96.zip and the date on Max.exe in that zip file is 2/25/96.

So Neil must have that same file, but in case I just sent it back to him now.

Best,
Norm

Thank you!

It's available on the net if you look hard enough. WHY you'd want to is another question but, yes, it IS available and, yes, it DOES work in Win 7

Neil Larson provided me with a newer copy of MaxThink.

It's now running as a near native Linux application thanks to dosemu.
