Just as an aside here... the Apple II+ systems we had at the Biomedical Library Learning Resource Center (back in '85, when I was a consultant at the library) had may similar capabilities.

And it doesn't take a machine like the Amiga (or Mac, or ST) to do it. -- David Paschall-Zimbel davidli@simvax.labmed.umn.edu
