IBM Current 1.00
Released in 1989 by IBM
For Windows 2.x

IBM Current 1.00 is a very useful Personal Information Manager
designed for Microsoft Window 2.x. It contains a calendar, address
book, phone dialer, outliner, text editor and can create Gantt charts
for project tracking. It is highly customizable, and acts as a
database where you can create categories with custom fields, custom
entry form layouts, and even "connect" related fields between
categories. On top of that, it features built in topic and
context-sensitive help.

It is notable for being one of the first Personal Information
Managers for Microsoft windows.

This version is designed for use under Windows 2.x and includes a
Windows 2.11 runtime. It is not 100% compatible with Windows 3.0 or
later, as it displays a warning that Windows 3.0 should run in Real
Mode.

In 1990 Version 1.00 was followed with Current 1.10. Reportedly, this
was still for Windows 2.

In 1991 IBM released "IBM Current-Officevision", a personal
information manager based on this for use with their mainframe
products.

In 1992 Current was acquired by Jenson-Jones (later Commence
Corporation), the original authors of this software, as IBM closed
their desktop software division. Jenson-Jones revamped the software
and released it under the name "Commence 1.0".

In 1993 Commence 1.0 was followed up by "Commence 2.0".

This archive contains four 5.25" 1.2mb floppy disk images.

To install with the runtime, run "setup" from the first disk. To 
install on an existing Windows 2.x system, run "install" from disk 4.

When it asks for a serial number, any 6-digit number should suffice.
