c9c-eh@dorothy.Berkeley.EDU.UUCP (Warner Young (WHY)) asks:

No, I saw it running on an ST.

Fraid not.

They were being sold.

I was led to understand that they were being marketed by DRI, imported
(and translated) by a Dutch firm called ABC software.

By the way, the man that I spoke to (who seemed to be quite
knowledgable) claimed that the reason that Gem Write and Draw weren't
available before now was that there was something wrong with the
version of Gem on the ST that couldn't support them. I'm afraid I
can't remember the details now.
