Guides on emulating older applications
Before you could use online calculators for your mortage you had to go out and buy a software package such as "The Financial Cookbook". It offers a wide array of "what-if" formulas, such as
- Single Savings Deposits
- Monthly Savings Deposits
- Deposit Needed for the Future Purchase
- Living on your Savings
- An IRA's Future Value
- How much life Insurance do I need
- Mortgage Schedule Yearly
- Mortgage Schedule Monthly
- Mortgages with Balloons
- Buying vs. Renting a Home
- Energy Saving Devices
And several more. You just fill in the blanks and will find out about e.g. the monthly payments on a mortgage if the interest reate goes up or down.
1st download is a disk image in Disk Copy 4.2 format. Copy protection prevents it from running.
2nd download is a flux-based disk image (A2R) captured with an Applesauce FDC. Its contents can be viewed using the Applesauce client software.
3rd download is the A2R flux image converted into WOZ format, suitable for writing back to another floppy disk with a 3.5" drive connected to an Applesauce FDC. This results in functional software, confirmed with a Macintosh Plus.
