Greg mentioned a tool for Windows that specifies being able to read 15
year old logs.

As for ebooks, that's a proprietary format, not opensource. There are
many complains about that format. What many people do is break the
protection and save the backup as unprotected ebook, to negate the
control to the companies and keep it in the hand of the person that
bought the ebook or his inheritors.

As to the link loader, it remains compatible. I still run binaries
that were built circa yr 2000.
