Software

I always forget where on the 'net to go to get all of the UNIX PC Software install disk images...so I created this page/post for myself (and for you...) so that I could find it more easily.  Google doesn't always show me, probably because I search inconsistently.  


But now it's always on my site...easier for me to find!


Bitsavers.org of course...  (My copy on Google Drive)

unixpc.org                         (My copy on Google Drive)

unixpc.org on archive.org (because unixpc.org disappears from time to time...)

unixpc.taronga.com          (My copy on Google Drive)

/STORE/README   

And George Hamstra has given me a login here:
Digital Dark Ages - Forgotten Bits of History (George Haamstra)



And a referral from Jesse AgentB:
SKEEVE.com

David Gesswein
David Gesswein's ready-made MFM/ST506 emulator image:


Archive.org?
Is there more?  Is it grouped well?

Oh, and I always enjoy this page by Bill Degnan...sort of a "companion" to the links above for me...   AT&T 3B1 Software

IMD/Image Disk for DOS
Also, here's Dave Dunfield's IMD/Image Disk, which is a valuable utility, as a LOT of these images listed above were created using this.

AND, andreas-jonsson saw fit to back this all up on Github, where it should stay indefinitely, even if the above domain "goes poof"....

And if you only need the utilities, run it on DosBox!

Suggested by Jesse on 2022-02-16:  (Organization and sorting will be forthcoming soon!)

So, what' s missing from here?  I'll add it.

I think I've archived all that so far, for when unixpc.taronga.com goes "poof" again:

the VIDPAL emulator -- allows writing to VRAM and needed to try the MGR window manager: http://www.unixpc.org/ftp.funet.fi/pub/archive/comp.sources.3b1/volume1/vidpal-em/
A little info on MGR -- not specific to UNIX PC: https://hack.org/mc/mgr/
A little more info on MGR: https://tldp.org/HOWTO/archived/MGR-HOWTO/MGR-HOWTO-4.html
decent collection of AT&T press photos and such I just came across the other day when researching the other AT&T 3B computers: https://www.1000bit.it/ad/bro/brochures.asp?id=40
