System/23 Application Training Tapes

[NeXT]

As I slowly chip away at excuses not to scan the bookshelf of software documentation I have, the next thing on my list are the audio cassettes that are bundled with some of the software packages IBM provided. I have Accounts Payable completed (two cassettes, four sides total and about 225mb per side from a 45 minute long 16-bit WAV file) and I'm halfway through Accounts Receivable. There's still two more sets of two tapes each to go through, whose names elude me because good god, these are dry and boring. The goal is to get a photo of the tapes and put them up as separate sets on IA since I don't think bitsavers is really in this to be hosting non-software material but once they are up, is anyone else interested in listening to this? They do refer heavily on the disks (which are now done and imaged) and the documentation. (still to-do)

Your work is amazing! Thank you for sharing this, as otherwise it will be lost to time!

Yes, I will listen to them for sure when I enclose my unit.

Yes, please . It's a very nice contribution.

I'm about 4 tapes away from completing this. So far only one tape had issues with sticky tape and the rest seems to just be slowly demagnetizing and at points I really had to crank the gain to keep is consistent.

Done.
