The software the son uses is Apple II GS, but I would be much more useful and be of more use in high school. Is there any (not incredibly expensive; price _is_ an issue here, since the II GS is much cheaper) way to run II GS software on a Mac Plus or SE? I've heard there was some product called "II in a Mac", but don't know much about it. (BTW, he'd like to purchase the computer in the next 2 months or so, so waiting for a new Mac from Apple which might run II software is not really practical). Any info, _much_ appreciated! Thanks!!
