You might be thinking of Microsoft Works? I don't remember it being free but it was frequently offered as a low-cost add-on.


Such a great oxymoron

I seem to remember Works was around £80, office 4.3 was around £400.

In reality whatever you had at work was free as you just brought the floppies home and installed it, which led to a generation of people being brought up on Microsoft products.


Ahh yes, that’s exactly what I’m thinking of. Thanks for the reminder.
