Although the DOS and Microsoft Windows versions are best known, its popularity was based on the fact that it had been available for a wide variety of computers and operating systems, including Mac OSLinux, the Apple IIe, a separate version for the Apple IIgs, most popular versions of UnixVMSData GeneralSystem/370AmigaOSAtari STOS/2, and NeXTSTEP.
