Message-ID: Date: 5 Jun 91 20:26:00 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Distribution: world Organization: The Internet Lines: 10 The main advantage to someone in the "scientific community" of using a IIE rather than a MacLC is that many of us use computers for interactive experimental control and data collection. I/O boards for the Apple are cheap, and of course we already have them. Obviously, their's no slot in the LC to plug them into. I/O requires much more hardware on the Mac! ------------------------------------------------------------------ --- Paul Brandon Psychology Dept Mankato State Univ --- --- PKBRANDON@MSUS1.MSUS.EDU Mankato, MN 56001 --- ------------------------------------------------------------------
