Thanks for the suggestions! I remember ClarisWorks and that was a great program. What version is best for Mac Plus?
Re: zip drive for the Mac Plus - does it require a certain OS version or no? Are they also compatible with a modern PC? I'm not familiar with them but I'll try to find one.
Can't find any of the older macs. I have Apple //e and //c somewhere, but I remember them only having them having 5 1/4" drives. So as far as writing discs at 800k, guess I'd need an external one or another computer entirely.
Unfortunately all I have in the way of contemporary computers is a PC with WinXP.
That's also the only computer connected to the Internet. Fool thing doesn't even have a floppy drive, period! But if a zip drive can pull off the file transfer issue I would be set. Again, not sure much about zip drives...
Could files like games or programs (z-machine or Clarisworks for example) be transferred on a server or network; via internet, ftp, or anything of that nature? Again, I'm not very savvy on the jargon, sorry!
I'm located (for now) in Davis, California, near Sacramento.
