I got mine from E.A.Brown Co., in the eastern U.S.  (I don't have the address
or phone handy -- could someone else post them, please?)  The Mac ROMS were $99
from the same place.

My floppy drive has been slowly dying, so I haven't gotten complete performance
from it, but I like what I've seen so far.  Everyone I talk to about Spectre
raves about it.

Generally speaking, if a program crashes in Spectre, it crashes on the Mac, too.Spectre GCR is an elegant piece of work, with love and genius leaking out the
cracks in its snap-together plastic case.  I'm glad I bought it.  You won't
be making a mistake by buying it.

TWO CAUTIONS:  You have to have a monochrome monitor.  And a hard disk (as with
any Mac system) really helps.
