Description
A typing tutor for NeXTSTEP, published by Strata Software in 1992.
Provenance
Bought as part of a box of disks at an estate sale and donated anonymously. 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.
