Ya, I have used wordstar. It was in my first pc that had no hard disk and a princely 640Kb RAM with a green monitor. I will try joe.
mine also had a green monitor - 256 kb RAM and one 360 kb FDD - I had wordstar and my wife's Phd thesis on one of those floppies
I was first introduced to computers on a similar machine, but with a 5.25" FDD - way back in 1988. And I remember being so happy when I first had my own 3.5" floppy!
