RE: STARBASE (was: Old tapes)

Paul,

I remember finding that out the hard way - locking up our S/38 in the MIDDLE
of the day... (years ago) ;-)

I remember one problem with one of the original releases of Starbase: 
It had some programs compiled at release 0 of OS/38.  Just the 
-existance- of one of these programs on an S/38 caused problems!

However, there were some programs which were 'useful.'  (:  I 
remember a version of "Othello" (IIRC), which we had to restrict 
because it was too popular.

We've still got a version of this library on our system.  It's been 
added to with a banner program, a mortgage calculator, and a few 
other goodies and text-pictures.
