ancient ATX installation CDs available

[Catherine]

I was going through some old (old!) storage areas in the office over the weekend, and came across ATX installation disks (including the final, archive disks) from 1995-2012.

Anyone want any of these? I can't see that I would ever have any use for them. Should I ever need to go back that far, Drake (my current software provider) makes all the prior-year programs available for free via download.

Else I'm just gonna toss the lot.

For anyone who still uses ATX and is on the "official" forum, feel free to pass the info along there.

@Catherine, they will make great targets!   Especially the 2012 disks.   I bet you can hit them at 150 yards...

I still have those too, back to the 1999 tax year when it was called Saber Pro!

Hang them on your house to scare away woodpeckers.

Darn I thought I was the only one that does that. Some of mine I drilled a hole in and put a heavy washer on it. Wind blows makes a noise the birds don't like.

We used to hang the AOL disks in the garden near the tomato plants to scare away birds and groundhogs.

Those old disks won't do anybody any good because the forms servers for those years are long gone, so you won't be able to download any forms.

Well, woodpecker deterrents should be useful to my younger daughter and her husband. They had quite the problem last summer with woodpeckers trying to make holes in their house.

I probably still have them somewhere.  I won't do past returns unless they are for the years I have on my current computer.  When I get a new computer, I have to put the  most recent year ATX program on it so I can use the rollover function.  But even that's a hassle.  I keep my previous computer in my office so the most recent years are available to me.

I just tossed all of mine a few  weeks ago.

I opened the storage area to where they all are and said someday I'll get to those. Closed the door and did something else. I've probably done that each time the topic has come up over the years.

Today is the day!  . . . maybe.
