Herzinger) Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac,comp.sys.mac.hardware Subject: Reasons for buying Apple CD SC Keywords: CD-ROM, WORM Message-ID: <5007@tekcrl.LABS.TEK.COM> Date: 7 Nov 89 04:08:50 GMT Followup-To: comp.sys.mac.hardware Organization: Tektronix Inc., Beaverton, Or. Lines: 21 If I buy a Macintosh soon, I can take advantage of Apple's restricted rebate program under which, purchases of certain system configurations entitles the purchaser to a rebate on the purchase of certain peripherals. The possibility that attracts me is the Apple CD SC. With the discount that I can get, plus the rebate, the price seems quite reasonable. But I'd like to know more first about what I'd be getting for my money? What software comes with the CD SC? What does "SC" stand for? Any sample disks? BTW my vendor didn't have anything or anyone that could tell me any particulars. What interesting disks are available (esp. for a programmer/scientist/writer...) ? Usefulness? Performance? Etc.? As long as I'm on the subject, any opinions on the Apple Portrait Display? Thanks, Scott -- Scott Herzinger scotth%crl.labs.tek.com@relay.cs.net Computer Research Lab, Tektronix, Inc.
