Replaces my Mac+ with 30MB HD, 2.5MB mem, and Mac-101 keyboard. I like it. The following programs all work like a charm: Excel (I have an FPU on the NuBus card) Word PowerPoint (Check out the color demo in slide show mode) Correct Grammar Dollars and Sense (Greatest noticeable improvement -- reports are FAST) MacTools Prodigy (Color is much nicer -- performance a little better) WillMaker White Knight Pool of Radiance Moria GunShy Pipe Dream Gauntlet Tetris (B&W) works but the sound is screwed up. Superpaint works well except that colors don't show up on the screen. The following are the only programs I expected to work and didn't: DeltaGraph: Can't open files from inside the program and crashes on some files. Puzzle Gallery (At the Carnival): Wierd. Worked fine for three puzzles. Hung. Deleted it and reloaded it, hung... Hypercard 2.0 is nice but how do I convert my old address stack to the new format (without writing a script for it)? I'm happy -- at least for now. Chris -- Christopher A. Warack warack@eecs.umich.edu Graduate Dept, EECS (313) 665-4789 University of Michigan
