Sounds like WIS. although I think this stuff is all going or gone "online" to the dealers. When there was no "online" system into the shop, WIS used to be updated via cdroms sent to the dealer, usually once a month, so it sounds like this is a "frozen" system, no updates. I'd research that with the seller, how current/what date is the material? ALSO WIS ran on an odd type of Windows, 95 or XP or something, just be careful about the OS, OK?
And sounds like it may also incluse EPC. See if it has Starfinder, that's a great tool to have. I'd be a little worried that it may eventually need a "shopkey" number to keep operating also, that's how they kept the dealers honest about it, a code would need to be entered once in awhile to keep it operating. But maybe there is a way to get around that from the disc.
