Psion WorkAbout - just switched on

Psion WorkAbout system screen

The WorkAbout is Psion's industrial palmtop. This emulator works in a slightly different way to the Series 3a and Siena emulators, which start up immediate showing you the System screen.

When this emulator runs you will be presented with the following screen:

Insert startup (autoexec) SSD and press Enter
or press Menu for System Interface

Press the Menu key (F9) or Psion+S (Alt+S) to see the System Screen.

MS-DOS ONLY
The emulator will ONLY run under a true DOS environment, and not a shell to DOS from within Windows. It is recommended that you SUBST the M, A and B drives. Instructions are given in the installation text file.

Beginners
In order to assist those who are not familiar with the installation of DOS software I have created a Zip Self-Extraction utility to run under 32-bit Windows. Simply double-click the installation file and copy the files to the C: drive, reboot to MS-DOS and type C:\SIENA at the DOS prompt to run. Simple!
