Someone dropped a massive (500GB) blob of 1990s IBM warez on Archive.org. It included some #InteractiveUnix releases I hadn't previously seen. Also versions of dBase, Lotus 123, Wordperfect ... and Microsoft Word 5 for UNIX!
Plus #FPGA and #PLD development software for AT&T's ORCA - and Neocad's FPGA Foundry, which is the base Xilinx ISE was built on.

Does anyone know anything about ACCELL UNIFY, ideally the Unix version? Installed version, install media, documentation, anything really.
I'm dealing with an app written with it and the only way to make it work is turn the clock back..... I'd like to fix that!
I could also do with scanned documentation or idiot's guides for #Sybase circa 1992?
