Planet Tutor

Port Dunstead Educational Software, 1997. Educational software for Windows 3.x.

Description

A planet program for ages 6 to 9, made for classroom use on Windows 3.x.

Provenance

Sent to Lazarus by post, with a note asking whether anything could be saved. The dye layer had begun to fail at the outer edge; the last sectors came from a second read in a different drive. The image matches a checksum published by the original distributor.

Access

Free, in the Lazarus reading room in Vancouver and in partner reading rooms. The license does not permit copies to be taken away.

In the reading room it runs in emulation under profile LZE-WIN3-6, from a read-only copy of the recovered image, as it would have on Windows 3.x.
