The A.P.P.S Project:
An attempt at
Acquiring & Preserving Productivity Software
for the
Commodore
64Personal Computer System
This page is a work in process (like all C64 sites). My main goal is to
remind or establish the fact that the C64 Computer was and is a "Personal
Computer". Most people seem to be focusing on "Game" software, which is very
cool. We all know the C64 was the greatest "Game machine" around in it's day.
But, there seems to be a little difficulty locating "Application" software.
I was well into my 30's when I got my C64 in 1986. I am a Musician, and used the
C64 to keep track of my gigs, where they were, how much they paid, my expenses,
etc. I was an AVID GEOS user and have ALL the APPS that go with the OS and then
some.
This is only a partial list of what I have, and I will be updating it as time
goes on. I'm retired now, so I have pleanty of time to "Play" with this site.
There's no need to try collecting "Game" software as GameBase64 *really* has
that covered well. They're doing a "Bangup" job cataloging, documenting, screen-shotting,
etc. They work VERY hard at this in their "spare" time... Thanks Guy's!!
Thanks to some really nice people who have helped me tremendously with my
"personal" collection of apps. People like The GB64 Team itself!, Bo Zimmerman,
Pete Rittwage, Ben Castricum, and even Kim Lemon have all helped me.. Thanks!
You guy's are the GREATEST!
Now, there won't be a lot of downloads here. But, if you see something you like,
shoot me an email and I'll be happy to send something to you. I just don't have
the "space" for all of it! - I have over 350MB of just GEOS software, and over
200MB of "Productivity" software. Spreadsheets, Databases, Word Processors, Art
and Music programs... 'Real' Brand-Name stuff!! NO Junk! (Well, maybe a little.
There ARE very good freeware and type-in programs available as well.)
Comments and suggestions are welcome and since *most* people like to download
"SOMETHING", please check out my Icons. Yeah, some are "plagiarized". But a lot
are my own. And the GEOS set was completely dome by ME! With PaintShop Pro and
IconShop! Hope you like them!
