Database Software

The ill-advised business software that helped sink videogame pioneers Infocom now runs on modern PCs: 'It's a new age for aficionados of failed 1985 database products!'

Infocom, known for its text adventures like Zork, also developed a database program called Cornerstone in 1985. This business software, designed for its own virtual machine, was notoriously slow and contributed to the company's downfall. The software is now available on modern PCs for enthusiasts of failed 1985 database products.
