TXG/MNX Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Hi, Anyone knows where to get these programs ? TURBOWORDTURBOBASE 80(word processor, database)MicroMiser Software, Inc.1635-A Holden AvenueOrlando, FL 32809(305) 857-601448K disk Turboword ($49) is a word processor for the Atari XEP80's 80-column screen. DOS 2.5 and SpartaDOS compatible, its features include automatic formatting, mail merge, macros, spelling checker, auto RAMdisk load and formfeed for laser printers. Also utilizing the XEP80, Turbobase 80 ($179) works like the original database, but with the 80 column screen making output formats more readable and easier to create. Turbobase 80 interfaces with Turboword. Owners of Turbobase can upgrade for $39. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodByteXL Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Hi, Anyone knows where to get these programs ? TURBOWORD TURBOBASE 80 MicroMiser Software, Inc. Acquired both programs more than two decades ago and used in home office. My TurboBASE unfortunately got destroyed during a move a decade ago. For both programs ABBUC e.V. got permission from MicroMiser to put it in our PD Library. TurboWord is PD # 0707. If anyone can provide a copy of the original program disk and the updates for TurboBase it could be taken over into our PD Library for official download. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodByteXL Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I *might* have this in the dungeon, I mean, basement. lol. Would be nice to bring it back to light, if you could be so kind. During that move back then I lost a whole box of original software and manuals, magazines, because one of the movers successfully unloaded a can of coffee (not a pot) into it. When I detected that, grrrrr .... Well, I've been compensated moneywise but the stuff was totally damaged and nearly nothing from that box could be recovered. ATR & manual would be a Christmas gift for fans of A8 user software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Take your time and make all disks as .atr Also scanning the manual(s) as .pdf would be cool...

Fred_M Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Hi, Take your time and make all disks as .atr Also scanning the manual(s) as .pdf would be cool... I really hope we can track down the Turbobase 80 I have scanned the manual. Because the manual consists of 560 pages, the quality is (sadly) very low. The original PDF is 140MB in size.... I hope some people can still enjoy this! turbobase_manual_atariage.pdf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATR & manual would be a Christmas gift for fans of A8 user software. I lost all my original software in a move back in the second half of the 90's, only I moved myself and the large box was left behind in a closet of a rental apartment and was thrown out before I knew and could make a recovery attempt. But for me it was everything, all media formats, all software except for half a dozen new boxed games I had acquired just prior to moving and were in another box and those were lost 2 decades later when my storage unit was robbed after another move.
