Claris sent me an Appleworks 3.0 upgrade offer a while back.  It sounds like
a good enough deal ($79 and my old original Apple*WRITER* disk for Aworks 3.0).

Anyway, I have a ][+ w/ 320k (and 768k of empty sockets),
  an (videx-type) 80 column board, an extended keyboard (capable of generating
  open apple and closed apple along with lowercase), printer, disk-drive, etc.
  I take it Appleworks 3.0 still won't work on a ][+ without a patch.  So, my
  question to the net is:

>>>Is there some software similar to "Plus-works" that will patch
   Appleworks 3.0 to work with a ][+ and videx card?  A friend used a
   version of Plus-works, but it couldn't handle any Appleworks
   revision above 1.3.  What about the software sold by Applied
   Engineering that they package w/ their 80-col board?  Will that deal
   w/3.0?

Either post your replies, or send them to: braun@cs.purdue.edu
