Hi:
I received this on another list and went to the recommended website and
downloaded the new PAF 4.0. It loaded in about 15 minutes at 56.6.
PAF was the first Genealogical software I bought from the LDS church
many years ago and it was originally for an old TRS-80 computer. It became
the basis for what became a large data base for my lines.
I had updated it several times as new versions came out until several
other software packages came out with new abilities and I changed to others.
I installed it on my computer and created a GED file from my master list
and transferred it to the new PAF software to see what it would do and I
have been pleased.

I just finished downloading - so simple that even I could do it! It
did
take
about 30 minutes and not the 15 minutes J.P. Downard said but it is
great.
Enjoy.....
