Transfer Photos from iPhone to Windows 11
How to Transfer Photos from iPhone to Windows 11:
https://www.howtogeek.com/765820/how-to-quickly-transfer-photos-from-iphone-to-windows-11/
"right-click your iPhone in File Explorer and select "Import" to import them automatically."
"After Windows has found all the new photos and videos it hasn't imported before, it will show you how many can be imported.
If you want to experiment with Windows 11's (somewhat confusing) attempt to organize your photos, you can choose the "Review, organize, and group items to import option." However, we recommend doing a simple import: Select "Import all new items now," then click the "Import" button."
"If you'd like to erase all the photos and videos from your iPhone after you're done importing, place a checkmark beside "Erase After Importing.""
"Open a File Explorer window and navigate to your Pictures folder. In that folder, you'll find a dated folder that contains all the photos and videos that you just imported."
"If you notice a bunch of AAE files in the folder with the pictures, don't be alarmed. Those are special metadata files Apple uses to store photo editing info. They are useless on Windows, so it's safe to delete any .AAE files you find."

WordStar 7, the last ever DOS version, is re-released for free
"The preferred tool of Arthur C Clarke, Anne Rice and George R R Martin":
" Sawyer has taken the final release, packaged it up along with some useful tools — including DOS emulators for modern Windows – and shared the result."
" The download is 680MB, but as well as the app itself, full documentation, and some tools to help translate WordStar documents to more modern formats, it also includes copies of two FOSS tools that will let you run this MS-DOS application on modern Windows: DOSbox-X and vDosPlus. Regular Register readers may recognize both from our story on how to run DOS on a 64-bit OS from last year. Sawyer also offers a handy command reference [PDF]."
" While it certainly has been abandoned since the end of the 20th century, the term "abandonware" isn't a legal one. It's not clear to us who owns the intellectual property. We doubt it's one of the surviving offshoots, today's Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, but it could be another offshoot, Software MacKiev. Either way, it's very unlikely that the owners will care."
