It was displayed at the faire by the developers and it looked pretty good. I can't remeber the name of the company, but I have it on a flyer and will send that along tomorrow. The two guys who made the thing and wrote the software said they felt there was a 50-50 chance that Apple would approve of their product and let them produce it, but I think that is a little too optimistic. They also said the price would probably be $50 over the cost of the ROMs ($180). They said it had worked with MacPaint, MacWrite, and Microsoft BASIC, but that it does not work with FatBits in MacPaint. I don't remember too much else of what they said, but there was a lot of interest in their booth. I'll post the address of the company tomorrow. - Brian Reilly -------
