Yes, RoaringApps was the website I was thinking of.
Thanks.
As to games, the first game we tried was Full Deck Solitaire - either the SD cloning had a problem with this or changing hardware triggered the message that the app cvould not be opened because it was corrupt.
The MS requirement to require re-registration is a pain. Are there other companies that require that as well when changing hardware?
As to the problem reading old floppies - I have a TEAC FD-05PUB that I have always used with previous versions of the OS. It didn’t work with ElCapitan.
Can’t remember exactly what happened and would have to see if I can find another old floppy to try to duplicate the problem.
For the time being I used an iMac with an older macOS I had sitting around, got off the floppies what I wanted and turfed the floppies after that.
I also have an external USB ZIP drive and a few ZIP cartridges that I have to check to see what is on them.
As to keeping the OS up-to-date.
If OS 10.14 is the last macOS to support MS Office 2011, that may just be the OS version I move all the current Macs to - especially since 10.14 may also be as far as I can take my 2012 MacMini.
