Pre-powerpoint app presentations were popular back in the days. In the 80s I recall there was a huge industry of educational presentations for 8-bit Commodore and Atari machines. Some good, some bad, and some very bad. There were a few that were interactive and "hyperlinked". In particular I learned programming Atari ANTIC display lists and players & missiles with one that allowed you to modify things in an editor/debugger in realtime so you could immediately see the changes in the graphics, and also checked your correct responses at the end in the self-evaluation section. Pretty awesome. I wonder if they used an external software to program that or they just did everything themselves, as it was usually done then.

I just downloaded DosBox, installed Win3.1 and the software. I am having a blast down memory lane. It's impressive how your brain can retrieve memories so well with only minimal hints after more than 20 years... the persistence of memory!
