1.  What's the difference between a Commodore 2002 and a Commodore 1084
    monitor?  Can a 2002 be used on a C-128?

2.  Is there a known problem with the 1581 disk drive and GEOS-128 v. 1.4?
    After I write to a disk for a while, GEOS starts getting disk errors
    ("Missing or unformatted disk," I think), and GEOS can not write to that
    disk any longer, although it can still read it.

3.  Is there any printer driver in GEOS-128 v. 1.4 that emits the proper
    escape sequences for a Star Gemini II printer?  I can't get GEOWrite
    to switch automatically to NLQ mode or to underline properly.

4.  Is there a vi-like editor for the C-128?

5.  What choice of modem on the GEOS Quantum Link disk will work with a
    Volksmodem 6480 (1200 baud)?
