 I just got back from the good ol' computer store, and now I've got a 
couple questions...

 #1 When the new finder is released (this summer?) is it to be called
    System Disk(s) 6.0? Does this mean that GSOS itself will be updated,
    as well as the Finder?

 #2 What GS software works with the Video Overlay Card?
    What software doesn't??

 #3 Since someone was asking about digitizing & the VOC card, has anyone done
    this? (yes, I realize the VOC can't digitize)

    What I am considering is buying the VOC (what's a good price?) and in the
    summer buying the Visionary card as well. I've got a Sonic Blaster to
    handle the sound playing/mixing, and two vcrs.)

    
And FINALLY, check out this post I saw a while back, about using Apple's
Full Page Scanner with the GS. It obviously can and has been done. I hope the
drivers for this are released with the next version of the system disk!!

Speaking about drivers, at a recent Apple Core meeting (a bay area apple users
group) Jim Merrit (apple R 'n D) came and demoed the star wars demo and some
other stuff.  And 'lo and behold, there was an Apple Flatbed Scanner driver on
his HD!!  He said it's been around for a while but no developer showed an
interest in it!!!  Geeze, are they ALL brain dead?

People have been pestering Apple for YEARS to write drivers for all of the GS
compatible Mac hardware floating out around there. . .
