Hi All,
My first post here.
Back in the day I used to use MaxThink extensively (mostly the DOS version).
As part of the experience I had numerous conversations with Neil Larson who originated the software and its unique and brilliant approach.
Many of the chats were in relation to my role as a technology columnist (also back in the day).
Has anyone on this forum been in touch with Neil in recent times? I’ve seen a variety of posts here on that topic and it seems he’s moved on.
I’d like to get in touch with him, but the old contact info I have doesn’t work.
Did he ever end up posting a copy of the Windows version with the lock system removed - if I understood correctly that was planned?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

His intro in the app’s manual listed a 510 area code phone number (which for obvious reasons I don’t want to post publicly). You could try calling it.

FYI there’s a discussion thread on this forum about the app here:

Neil moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado. I haven’t talked with him in several years.

Thanks satis, I’ll try that number… I just noticed your reply - over a year later! :-)

I just tried the maxthink.com website. It’s no longer about the software, but now is about Contra Dancing in Colorado Springs.
