Hi Bill;
     I am wondering if you still have your Eureka? If so what do you
think of it? If not did you sell it?
     I as because I have had mine for six months and I bought it so that
I could write music. I realize that it has it's limitations. For example
do you think a com program could be written that would unzip a zip file?
I wrote Robotron recently and told them that I felt The Eureka would not
have very much value to blind people unless we could unzip a zip file.
Zip files are very popular out here. There are text files around as well
but I am unfortunately missing out on so much because I can't unzip a
zip file. I am not a programmer and I thought that I had better ask an
expert. On the whole, what do you think about the Eureka and do you
think it is a viable computer for the ninty's?
Thanks for taking time to answer my questions.
