IMPORTANT: A number of programs I use have recently become shareware. In these instances, I will list and underline the last known free version... finding them may not be easy...
This details my Win98 Gold installation: It is all software I use, therefore items may leave these lists as well as join. I also use retail software such as Office 2000 Pro (student), Textbridge Pro 9 (OEM), Norton Utilities 4 (OEM), AceExpert 3 (mag), Soundprobe 2.5 (mag CD upgrade), CorelDRAW Select 7 (OEM), Nero 5.5 (OEM), DriveImage 3.02 (mag).
Good Free Software Recommendations
