New Life for Old PCs
New software provides Internet access to old, pre-Internet PCs.
NewDeal has
announced the release of the NewDeal Web Suite, which provides
Internet
access, e-mail, and chat capabilities to any system with at least 10MB
of
hard disk space and 640K of memory. The software features a Web
browser and
advanced functions such as instant chat and Web page editing. The
software
caters to the 30 million to 60 million pre-Pentium machines still in
use,
even those based on Intel 80286 CPUs that cannot run the latest
versions of
Windows. NewDeal's files can be accessed by Windows applications, and
the
software can read files saved by Windows programs. NewDeal is mainly
targeting organizations with limited resources, such as schools and
nonprofit
groups.  (PC World Online 07/07/99)
