I mentioned I had ordered the PC Transporter documentation from Applied 
Engineering.  It arrived by UPS last Friday.  Some comments based on what I
read:  (1) PC Transporter does NOT include the operating system software; you
must buy MS-DOS from your local dealer, (2) BASICA is not compatible with
PC Transporter, although GWBASIC is, (3) the documention is one spiro bound
package with 163 pages including several (moderate quality) pictures for
helping in installation process, (4) there is essentially zero discussion
about MS-DOS, which is logical once I thought about it, (5) an unanswered
question about how the Imagewriter II is supported was answered -- there is
software to allow IW-II to emulate an IBM Graphics Printer.

Cheers,
Bud
