This is for my father-in-law who has a TI pro and is a computer illiterate.
(I am a TI pro illiterate).  Has anyone converted some of the popular IBM PC
software to be compatable with the TI pro?  Or does anyone know of ways to do
so? Or is anyone interested in doing so?  Any help appreciated.

The people that do the conversions for the TIPC are [usually] the makers of
the
software themselves.  It is this reason that you may have to ask the
maker of said software for a TIPC version since it will be rare that
you find a TIPC version in the stores.  Mind you a large variety of
software written for the IBM do have TIPC versions.

Btw,  most IBM-PC software that doesn't do graphics or dink with the
devices directly can be run on the TIPC by using the Emulator
program that comes on the TI MS-DOS 2.x diskette.  Unfortunately,
this is a small selection of software.
