The mac serial interface kit comes with a program to convert GROB's
into bitmap (paint) objects and paste them onto the clipboard and also
take bitmaps on the clipboard and convert them into GROB's

There is also a screen font that corresponds to the 48's font. Lets
you do editing with a mac directly (none of \<< or \->) then tranfer
it the to 48 with a 0 translation code (speeds up transfers a little).

No, its not worth the extra money, but if you can get some one else to
pay for the thing it is.
